It's a direct effect of the way New York City's wastewater pipes were built, and it's the same basic infrastructure problem facing over 40 million people in 700 American cities. • In the first part of a three-part series on freshwater in America, Emerson Rosenthal takes a dip in the grand Hudson River to find out just how far we've swum up shit's creek. • Watch parts 2 and 3 here: • Florida: http://bit.ly/Water-Crisis-2 • California: http://bit.ly/Water-Crisis-3 • Check out more VICE documentaries: http://bit.ly/VICE-Documentaries • Subscribe now: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE • Check out our full video catalog: / vice • Videos, daily editorial and more: http://vice.com • Like VICE on Facebook: http://fb.com/vice • Follow VICE on Twitter: / vice • Read our tumblr: / vicemag
