At the next Secret Science Club, physicist and world water expert Giulio Boccaletti gives us the lowdown on that shape-shifting, life-giving, and sometimes treacherous substance (H2O) and the story behind unending hurricanes, floods, and droughts.
Dr. Boccaletti asks: How has our stormy relationship with H2O shaped our destiny? What’s in our future as we face an increasingly thirsty world?
--Mix up our cocktail of the night, the "Dry Spell"… (recipe below!)
--Ebb & flow to wet-and-wild grooves
--Bring your questions for the live Q&A
