Watch out for our drinking water supplies

Live healthy and long

From Dr. Mercola January 15, 2013

US drinking water supply from wells that 800 feet or shallower are very likely to be polluted.  Pollution can come from many sources:    nitrogen based fertilizer, pesticides and herbicides.  Drinking water must be regularly monitored for pollution.  Other sources are fracking which can cause hydrocarbons to leak into aquifer.

What is disturbing is loss of water supply.  Abundant use of irrigation in Central US drawn from Ogallala aquifer has caused its rapid depletion in just 15 years.  The GM crops also consume a lot of water while not increasing productivity.

So what  -  the water ionizer, the bottled water sale will still be high?  (the danger will come though from xenostrogens from PET bottles)
