On this West Virginia Morning, with temperatures rising and storms intensifying, rain barrels can help farmers and gardeners collect rainwater and ensure it goes directly to their crops.
Also, pollution from abandoned mine drainage is one of the unfortunate legacies of West Virginia’s energy history. But one waterway in Monongalia County is on a path to recovery with new opportunities on the horizon.
And a groundbreaking ceremony in the city of Weirton this week celebrates efforts to improve clean water access.
