Dr. Marc Edwards: Bad Government Betrayed Flint, MI. Good Government can Make it Right

Dr. Edwards teaches courses in environmental engineering, applied aquatic chemistry and engineering ethics. His research group aspires to pursue science as a public good, through laboratory work on practically important but underfunded topics-- that work laid the groundwork for investigative science uncovering the 2001-2004 D.C. Lead Crisis and the 2014-2016 Flint Water Disaster. Time Magazine dubbed Edwards "The Plumbing Professor" in 2004, and listed him amongst the 4 most important "Innovators" in water from around the world. The White House awarded him a Presidential Faculty Fellowship in 1996. His paper on lead poisoning of children in Washington D.C., due to elevated lead in drinking water, was judged the outstanding science paper in Environmental Science and Technology in 2010. In 2013, Edwards was the 9th recipient (in a quarter century) of the IEEE Barus Award for "courageously defending the public interest at great personal risk," and in 2016 he was named amongst the most influential people in the world by Fortune and Time magazines.
