In the first episode, Laura Lovett sits down with Audrey Schulman of HEET, a Cambridge-based organization that has done extensive work mapping gas leaks. She explains the impact of gas leaks on our community and environment and why all residents of Massachusetts should care. 

Laura kicks off Sprouts: Connecting Community to Science with this issue because it affects each person living in Massachusetts. Under our cities and towns there are thousands of pipes lines that run natural gas into our homes. Those pipes can leak. In Massachusetts alone there are 16,507 unfixed gas leaks, according to a Home Energy Efficiency Team report.
