Dr. Kevin Perry, Professor of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Utah, also know as "Dr. Dust", joins us to talk all about dust. We cover the rising concern of the newly-exposed dry lakebed, and how the resultant dust may expose the whole valley to dangerous toxic materials. We learn what is being done now and what can be done in the future to protect us. You may be surprised to learn that not everything is as you've been told. A very informative discussion.
