New report finds 'Erin Brockovich' chemical in US drinking water - senona - 09-21-2016 Important information regarding water supply health issues. Quote:Dangerous levels of chromium-6 are contaminating tap water consumed by hundreds of millions of Americans, according to a national report released Tuesday. Source "Americans are exposed to dozens if not hundreds of other cancer-causing chemicals every day in their drinking water, their consumer products and their foods," Walker said. "And what the best science of the last decade tells us is that these chemicals acting in combination with each other can be more dangerous than exposure to a single chemical." In 2008, a two-year study by the National Toxicology Program found that drinking water with chromium-6 caused cancer in laboratory rats and mice. Unregulated contaminants Quote:"The EPA periodically does this: goes down and looks for what it calls unregulated contaminants," or chemicals in drinking water that are not regulated, Walker said. The EPA gathers its information through local utilities and then takes the results "under advisement," according to Walker. Quote: Think it is time for our government to step up to the plate, and fix our infrastructure, namely our water supply. They can find the millions of dollars to send over seas to other countries, time for them to take care our their own country and the welfare of it's citizens. Interactive Map-- Erin Brockovich' Chemical Taints Tap Water of 218 Million Americans RE: New report finds 'Erin Brockovich' chemical in US drinking water - 727Sky - 09-22-2016 With bottle water costing more than gasoline and everyone's favorite CEO saying water is not a right because he wants to own it all and sell it.... Makes you wonder sometimes.. Is all this just ineptitude or is there a bigger plan afoot ? I posted an article a couple of years ago about a uranium mine that had left all the radio active mine tailings piled up next to a major river that provided the water supply for a couple of million people down stream... Those living down stream all had ejevated cancers while those above nada.. Found the Article: http://www.activistpost.com/2013/10/hot-water-uranium-industrys-dirty.html#more Quote:I had no idea that there are more than 1,000 abandoned uranium mines in the southern Black Hills alone. There are countless abandoned mines elsewhere. I had no idea that there were over 4,000 abandoned test wells in the southern Black Hills…countless more elsewhere. Although I must admit that is nothing compared to the glyphosate from round up found in over 90% of the urine samples and even found in vaccines.. Messed up man made environment IMO... They made sure by pumping all the chemicals down hole for fracking that even the deep underground water would be polluted. |
