What's In Your Tap Water?

"Legal limits for contaminants in tap water have not been updated in almost 20 years."

A database developed by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) is illuminating.

The organization observes: “Legal does not necessarily equal safe. Getting a passing grade from the federal government does not mean the water meets the latest health guidelines. Legal limits for contaminants in tap water have not been updated in almost 20 years. The best way to ensure clean tap water is to keep pollution out of source water in the first place.”

Levels of water contamination in your zip code are just a few keystrokes away: https://www.ewg.org/tapwater/
