Hey, science fans. One thing we don't get to talk about enough on this show is environmental concerns, ecology, resources, that sort of thing.

I wish we had more on this topic on the show.

Fortunately, I found a new podcast that I believe you guys will enjoy called Waterline.

Waterline podcast is everything related to water, how to make sustainable irrigation,

can water bring peace, how do you keep water clean and safe, and how much money does our

current water system cost in the U.S., What changes can we make and how we use water?

I just listened to a fantastic episode called Water in Peace, Hydropolitics. It was all about

the many different conflicts over different regions of water. We've drawn all of these

arbitrary lines for our kind of political regions. And one thing that we didn't really factor in

when doing that was water sources. So now there's all of these uncomfortable, to say the least, conflicts where all of

these areas overlap over water sources. Fantastic episode. The Waterline podcast is an initiative

of Israel New Tech, a part of the Israeli Ministry of Economy and Industry. So check it out for everything you need to know about the economics,

political, social, behavioral, technological, and environmental aspects of water. Search for

Waterline podcast on iTunes or in your Android podcast app.

Welcome to the Here We Are Podcast, everybody.

I am Shane Moss.

I am going to be in Australia at the end of October.

I believe that I have a date in Houston and possibly Boston and some other things coming up.

It just depends on what other projects. I'm in the middle

of a zillion things right now, but please check out Shane Moss, M-A-U-S-S-S.com, and I'll be adding

some more tour dates very soon. Joining me, co-hosts, two co-hosts, this week.
