Sewers: Messages From the Underground @ Brooklyn Public Library (virtual)

Sift through the muck in the pipes below our streets and you will discover a wealth of information about public health, climate change, sustainability, consumerism, infrastructure failures and more. Jessica Leigh Hester does just that in her new book, Sewer. Join her as she moderates a discussion with scientists from London, Toronto, California and New York’s own Hudson River Park. They dig into fatbergs, microplastics, Covid sampling, and cutting edge sewage technology, and will forever change how you think about what goes down our drains.
