This week, we’re talking about the impacts of rollbacks at the Environmental Protection Agency with Frank Holleman with Southern Environmental Law Center and drinking water protections with state Representative JA Moore. 

Public Concern is the weekly podcast from the South Carolina Conservation Coalition. The name of our podcast comes from Article 12 of the South Carolina Constitution, which is all about the functions of government: “The health, welfare, and safety of the lives and property of the people of this State...and the conservation of its natural resources are matters of public concern.” 

Subscribe, and send any questions you'd like for us to discuss at [email protected]. You can find out more at publicconcernpodcast.org.
