H2O Radio Is Sound Journalism About the Planet

Water is life. It covers nearly three-quarters of our planet, yet fresh drinking water is under threat from climate change, contamination, and ecosystem destruction. In 2013, Jamie Sudler and Frani Halperin saw a dearth of radio content about water—and much of it was dry—so they formed H2O Radio to educate and inspire stewardship of this precious resource through storytelling and sound.

H2O Radio’s reporting—heard on community and public radio stations across the country—isn’t just journalism about rivers and lakes. Water is integral to energy, manufacturing, and health. It’s also at the core of the climate crisis, which is told through drought, extreme weather, floods, melting glaciers, sea level rise, and more. Rather than tell that narrative solely through statistics and charts, we talk with people about how a changing world is changing their lives, and hear what their experiences can teach us about adaptation and living a more sustainable future together.
