Water seems like an almost limitless resource. Turn on the tap, and there it is, clean and ready to use. 

Until, one day, it isn't. 

Catawba Riverkeeper Brandon Jones joins this episode of the Future Charlotte podcast to talk about the biggest threats to our water (growth is high on the list, as we add more impervious surface and use more water), how he keeps watch on 9,000 miles of creeks and streams, and how we can all help protect our region's water. 

"As our population grows, so do those challenges," said Jones. Listen below, and find all episodes on Apple Podcasts
