But, it’s running out. And a new study shows how global “peak water” could be just around the corner. In this episode, we’ll find out WHEN and WHERE peak water is expected to hit. Weathered is a show hosted by weather expert Maiya May and produced by Balance Media. It helps explain the most common natural disasters, what causes them, how they’re changing and what we can do to prepare.
