The Bowels of the City: Episode 5
Go for a ride through the bowels of the city with AG, Liah, and special guest Dr. Madhu Morali in this latest episode of Water You on About. Discover a little known world and learn about exactly where our wastewater goes when it’s flushed down the drain, how sewers are designed, people who’s job it is to push sewerage around, and a theme park ride in Japan where you have to dress up as poo! Can the sewerage pipes in Australia really reach all the way around the world? Are more than half of water costs down to wastewater treatment? What would happen if all our sewers magically disappeared? Find out the answer to all of these questions and more as you explore the bowels of the city.
