The Trouble with Flint

For two years the residents of Flint, Michigan, were supplied with drinking water containing extremely high levels of lead. Through a number of errors and decisions, the community were exposed unnecessarily in what is now a high-profile, much reported incident. Come and listen to the story and see what we can learn from the event.
