On this week’s edition of EHS This Week we take a look at the top stories in environment, health and safety news, including:

• Alarming news on the fatality rates in cell tower construction.
• A look at a state investigation five years after a flash fire claimed the life of a worker at a Franklin factory. 
• Continuing covwerage of the worst drought in recent memory and the Mississippi river’s historically low levels. Also news on a study on the U.S. media’s coverage of climate change, and a whole lot more.
