Water, what’s in it?

I started down this road no too long ago. Yet once again, my not hard wired correctly, inquisitive mind, off on yet another adventure.

The water that we are consuming, from our pure spring water, bubbling, on the top of a mountain water scource. Pure, just what our bodies require. Well. I’m just the messenger here folks,that vision is about to shatter into millions of pieces:

Yuck, Yuck, Yuck. All the way to the bank. Whenever lots and lots of money is involved, have you ever noticed lots of yuck is, as well!

Water has been an issue for me for many, many, many years. I have been following the path of water and am  a water activist and have been forever (http://www.foodandwaterwatch.org/). Being the oldest of eight in an Italian family didn’t hurt either, our showers were timed!

Pure, life giving, healthy water is a basic human right,  or is it? These are the questions we need to ask both ourselves and each other. The more questions we pass around, the more answers will come in return. But if the questions are never asked then I believe we are doomed, and justifiably so!

Water, what’s in your?
