With all the attention on the quality of our environment, a lot of people might be tempted to build a home made water purifier to filter their water. On the face of it, that sounds like a great idea. If you’ve done any research on our water supply, I’m sure you’re just as appalled as I am about the impurities and toxins we’re drinking. The state of our water supply is alarming, to say the least.
Slide 3:
The water you drink contains everything from dormant microorganism to lead to prescription drugs to pesticides! A study was done recently of 29 U.S. cities’ water supplies. All of the water supplies had at least one pesticide in them! Many had three or more! Prescription drugs are showing up more and more frequently in our water! No wonder we’re having outbreaks of things like drug-resistant bacteria.
Slide 4:
Your tap water could have as much chlorine in it as pool water! Chlorine is a poison. It was actually used during World War I as a weapon of mass destruction. Ingesting chlorine has been linked to an increased chance of getting cancer. You might think bottled water is safer. I’m sorry to say that it’s not. As a matter of fact, it could be less safe. There are fewer federal restrictions about what can be in bottled water than there are for tap water.
Slide 5:
Making your own home made water purifier sounds like a great idea–a great way to get rid of all this stuff in our water! The technology behind water purification, however, is beyond what you can do yourself at home. There are several ways to purify water, and the best purifiers on the market use several of them together.
Slide 6:
nstead of making your own home made water purifier , you might really want to consider buying one. There are some really good ones on the market.
