Judith D. Schwartz is a journalist who focuses on nature-based solutions to global environmental, economic, and social challenges. She is the author of Cows Save the Planet, Water in Plain Sight: Hope for a Thirsty World, and the new book The Reindeer Chronicles.

In this podcast episode, Judy (featured originally in episode 130) sheds light on why we need to look beyond how much water we use to the water cycle itself when talking about water scarcity and conservation; why we need to understand and address climate change through the lens of water—and not just carbon dioxide; and more.
