In this episode of Talking Environment, host Gevorg Ghazaryan is joined by Dr. Laura Toran, Professor of Earth and Environmental Science at Temple University, for a deep dive into one of the most essential but often overlooked topics in environmental science - urban water systems.
From stormwater to sinkholes, Dr. Toran explains how water moves through cities, why flooding is getting worse, and what urban planners and everyday citizens can do to manage water more sustainably. The conversation also explores karst hydrology, pollution pathways, groundwater risks, and how science and technology are helping us better understand what happens beneath our feet.
Whether you’re interested in climate resilience, infrastructure, or just curious about where rainwater really goes - this episode will change how you think about water in cities.
