Don’t Drink The Water


I don’t want to sound like an alarmist (I know that climate change deniers believe all environmentalists are alarmists, but that is an argument for another day). I like to look at facts and change my behavior as more information is discovered. My long-term girlfriend and occasional guest blogger went to the doctor not too long ago and they mentioned that we shouldn’t be drinking the tap water in our area.

That didn’t sound good.

We can’t afford a whole house water filtration system and most of the small carbon filters don’t get out everything that is in our water. Our solution at the moment is to go to the local Meijer store, which is right by where I work, and buy bulk, filtered water. It tastes great and is only 29¢/gallon. We take empty glass containers and refill them.



You can go here and check the quality of the water in your area.
