  • Water Pollution in America - A Home Water Filtration Will Remove the Pollution
    [Health-and-Fitness:Environmental-Issues] Although considered to be leaders in the push to reduce global emissions and curb the contamination of our environment, water pollution in America matches that of any other industrialized nation. We may be interested in solving environmental problems right now, but it hasn't always been this way. When we were rising to power there was no way of knowing what the long term affects would be.


  • A Travel Water Purifier is Safer Than Bottled Water
    [Health-and-Fitness:Environmental-Issues] The idea of a travel water purifier probably never crosses a lot of people's minds. Most of us are simply concerned either with purifying what we drink at home, or we have switched to drinking bottled inside and outside of the house. The first thing I want to say is that if you don't currently have a purifier in your home you need to get one, and the other thing is stop drinking pre-packaged bottled H2O.


  • Drinking Water Pollution Can Be Avoided With a Home Water Filter
    [Health-and-Fitness:Environmental-Issues] The problems we face concerning drinking water pollution aren't going away, and they are certainly not going to be getting better anytime soon either. There are more than 80,000 industrial chemicals that are being used somewhere each and every day in order to add to our convenience and productivity. Virtually all of these chemicals are finding their way into our ground water system.


  • Chemical Water Pollution Can Be Harmful to Your Health
    [Health-and-Fitness:Environmental-Issues] Unless you are willing to take steps to ensure the safety of your family, each of you will suffer to some extent the effects of chemical water pollution. Our water supply has been bad for decades, and the problem is only getting steadily worse. This stems from our dependence on chemicals as a way of making our lives easier, but these chemical agents could in fact be making our lives shorter.


  • City Water Pollution - Is Your Water Safe?
    [Health-and-Fitness:Environmental-Issues] You need to take some steps to make sure that your family does not fall victim to the city water pollution that comes out of your tap. You may be one of those people that either thinks that the water treatment facilities are capable of doing an adequate job of keeping us safe, or you are positive that you will not be affected because your family drinks only bottled water. You would be wrong on either count.


  • Causes of Water Pollution Should Be a Concern For Your Health
    [Health-and-Fitness:Environmental-Issues] There are several causes of water pollution, and some of the contamination of our water is due to natural occurrence. The vast majority of the contamination of our water supply has come by our own actions however, and we don't seem to be learning from our mistakes. Our water supply is filled with toxins that were invented, and used by man in our ever consistent attempt to make life easier for us.


  • Drinking Distilled Water is Not Safer Than Drinking Contaminated Tap Water
    [Health-and-Fitness:Environmental-Issues] There are many people that are of the opinion that drinking distilled water is the answer to avoiding the pitfalls of unfiltered tap water.

Let me tell you about the distillation process, and why it is not all that it's touted to be.


  • Groundwater Pollution Needs to Be Taken Seriously
    [Health-and-Fitness:Environmental-Issues] The studies done to determine to what extent groundwater pollution is affecting our water supply have been coming up with increasingly frightening results.

  • Water Pollution Control Needs to Be Every Person's Concern and Responsibility
    [Health-and-Fitness:Environmental-Issues] Despite what the EPA and the water treatment facilities would like for you to think, water pollution control is virtually non-existent.

The water they are sending you is simply not as pure as it should be.


  • Industrial Water Pollution is a Serious Issue and Can Harm Your Health
    [Health-and-Fitness:Environmental-Issues] We finally have to recognize the fact that industrial water pollution has simply gotten out of control. It has gotten so bad that we have to be cautious about how much seafood we have in our diets, and we can't even trust the water that is flowing through our taps. How did we allow things to get so out of control that we have just about ruined one of our most precious resources, and a necessary source of life?
