Naturalblaze | ~ New Data Reveals 19 Million People In 43 States Exposed To Toxic Chemicals In Drinking Water ~ | Blogger: NOT only in America -- Even with EU's Legislation called 'The Drinking Water Directive' (Council Directive 98/83/EC of 3 November 1998 on the quality of water intended for human consumption), and EU falske claims for better quality and access, call for strict health rules on ‘water contact materials’, there's still plastic fibres, pesticides, chlorination etc. which could be unhealthy drinking water, contaminated with PFAS chemicals... The more north you travel up through Europe, the more cleaner, but even in Denmark, one of TOP cleanest, findings is too high a level of pesticide residue in every tenth of 1,698 tested drinking water wells. Not to mention, some bottled water brands are actually high in sodium and other things, cleanest water i've tasted was natural spring water in the mountains of Turkey and in Mt. Shasta in California (with or without chemtrails from the skies)... |


While those who lead our cities, towns, and public utilities companies continually reassure us that they’re doing us a service and require payment to continue doing so, it is glaringly obvious that most Americans are getting a poor return on their investment.

A new report by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) and Northeastern University has found that people in 43 states in the United States have access to unhealthy drinking water, contaminated with PFAS chemicals. According to the CDC, those very same chemicals have been linked to major health issues like birth defects, cancer and infertility. “PFAS compounds are a family of thousands of chemicals used in a wide array of consumer and industrial applications” that most of us have in our homes right now—cleaning products, waterproof clothing, nonstick cookware, textiles, grease-resistant food packaging, leather, paper goods, paint and more. One of the most notorious PFAS compounds is PFOA, which was previously used to make DuPont’s Teflon.

Using information compiled from the Pentagon and water utility reports, the researchers have shown that around 19 million people are currently being exposed to contaminated water, with contamination sites ranging from entire public water systems to military bases, airports, industrial plants, garbage dumps and firefighter training sites.
