Water insecurity isn’t just a challenge in developing nations—it may be affecting roughly one in five U.S. households. professor Justin Stoler spoke on The Academic Minute about his research exploring the “quiet water crisis” in the United States and new ways to understand how people experience water insecurity.

Stoler’s work looks beyond traditional measures like groundwater levels and water supply to consider the human experience, from being unable to wash your hands to worrying about having enough water. His research points to environmental disasters, emerging contaminants, and declining public trust as growing challenges while highlighting how better technology, affordability, and new ways of measuring water insecurity can help improve access to safe water.
