One word comes to mind when we think about the environmental news that’s been a conversation starter in St. Louis in 2015: landfills. Specifically, what is going on at the Bridgeton and West Lake landfills north St. Louis County. On Wednesday’s “St. Louis on the Air,” © 2024 ’s science reporter VéroniqueLaCapra joined the show to discuss the evolution of the landfill situation and other big science, environmental and wildlife news of the year.
