The episode begins with a special segment on Women in Engineering to celebrate International Women`s Day (March 9th) and National Engineering Month in Canada. This week’s segment covers Engineers Canada’s 30 by 30 Initiative to increase the number of women in engineering (0:00)
This week`s engineering failure is the Volkswagen Emissions Scandal; AKA Dieselgate. Using a defeat device (6:35), Volkwagen’s TDI diesel vehicles altered engine performance to cheat emissions tests. They almost got away with it, until a Canadian Air Resource Board study, including test results from a West Virginia test (7:35) exposed their device. Since being exposed, Volkswagen has faced consequences (10:05) and received backlash from countries and consumers around the world.
