Shownotes Transcript

Hello Highstorians. This week we are traveling to the Imperial Valley in California. Where there used to be something called The Salton Sea, there is now something called the Salton Sea.  Once dubbed and developed as The California Riviera, a place with resorts and celebrities galore has now changed into an environmental disaster. Then we're taking you to China to explore the most deadly damn failure in history, leading to 200,000 + dead, caused again by man not respecting the power of nature.
