In this week's episode, host Margaret Walls talks with Becky Epanchin-Niell, an associate professor at the University of Maryland and a senior fellow at Resources for the Future. Epanchin-Niell discusses how climate change and human land and water use have accelerated the frequency and extent of saltwater intrusion, which is saltwater contamination in freshwater rivers, soils, and aquifers. Epanchin-Niell and Walls also talk about the implications of saltwater intrusion for coastal ecosystems, drinking water, and the agricultural sector. Epanchin-Niell's recent research examines how saltwater intrusion affects agricultural practices on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.

Hi, I'm Jessica Post, Executive Director of the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee, and I'm excited to announce the launch of our brand new podcast, Stated. At the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee - or the DLCC as you might hear us call it - we work to elect more Democrats in state legislatures, and on this podcast, we'll talk about what's happening state politics across the country. Here's the deal: the laws passed in your state capitol have a bigger effect on your everyday life than anything passed in Washington. When, where, and how you vote is decided by your state representatives. Protections for reproductive rights and the LGBTQ community are enforced by your state representatives. Gun laws, school funding, labor rights, immigration - all of these issues start in the states. It's no secret that since 2010, Democrats have been hit hard in state legislatures, but we've never been in a better position than we are now to change all that. On Stated, we'll talk to Democratic stars and experts about everything you need to know about state politics and how you can get involved in your community.
