And with the help of public-interest attorneys, they launched a legal battle that would redefine Muscatine.In this interview, Scott Entin, one of the residents’ attorneys, tells the story of this long and difficult fight. And he explains how the group’s legal strategy could help address other environmental crises, including climate change.Support us by supporting our sponsors.Planet Money: Listen now to Planet Money by NPR wherever you get your podcasts.Meridian Grooming: Get 20% off The Trimmer by visiting meridiangrooming.com and typing in the code SCANDAL at checkout.Audible: New users can try Audible free for 30 days.
