[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I recently had a tour of an industrial area in Baltimore (for work, don't ask). Located there is a bottled water company that uses Baltimore city water - maybe it's filtered a few times more, but it's still the same water you get out of the tap. [/quote]

Filtration matters.[/quote]

It's not just filtration that matters, it's also all the hundreds of miles of deplorable, leaking, bacteria-ridden water mains and service lines. Very few people are routinely testing tap water at their house. They just parrot what the muni reports. Tap water can become lead-ridden, bacteria-ridden, or [b]full of PFAS[/b] and other chemicals in an instant when passing through the system. You think your local government cares to flag EVERY issue?

As we saw in Flint, Michigan, governments at the local, county, state, and fed (EPA) level, plus vendors, plus even the news media all worked in concert to bury the crisis for years.[/quote]

Oh the irony.....[/quote]
