I just read an article about the amount of lead in American water. Apparently. the problem goes beyond the situation in Flint, Michigan. I think that in the coming years the availability of clean water is going to be severely restricted. People are going to be migrating from all over just to get closer to untainted aquifers.

I just read an article about lead levels in water. I had thought that the water crisis in Flint was just some one off incident. It turns out that it isn't just a one off incident and that it is much worse than the government is leading us to believe. A report recently done shows that more than 18 million Americans are served drinking water by providers that have violated federal laws concerning lead in water. You might ask what the government is doing about these violations. The answer is that they are not doing much. Out of all of these violations only 3% were ever made to pay any sort of retribution for their carelessness. Something needs to be done and it needs to be done soon.

Dear friend,     I have just read an article about something that has disturbed me. It is about the water crisis going on in Flint and other places in America. I could not imagine not having access to clean water.

I feel that this will become a national problem soon. I feel that the pipes that built America are getting old and that many cities will suffer the same issues as Flint Michigan. I hope that the people in charge of these cities will be punished for their crimes in my opinion. I believe they knew it was wrong and turned a blind eye.
