What is the Corona/Covid-19 Virus Really Teaching us? 1) It is reminding us that we are all equal, regardless of our culture, religion, occupation, financial situation or how famous we are. This disease treats us all equally, perhaps we should too. If you don’t believe me, just ask Tom Hanks....Continue reading

Current Corona Spread Techniques are a Failing! Something is Missing. Physical distancing and isolating are good techniques to help slow the spread. That alone is not enough. Compare the spread in the US and China while Canada is not far behind. I predict The US will have more cases, and more deaths than China, Italy and most other nations. The spread is by transmission from breathing into the air space with the virus making contact with humans and most other items the virus ...touches. The simplest, cheapest and best way to stop the spread is to stop freely breathing into the air space. Just look at what the people in China have been doing for years. Most of the world has shutdown many industries and services except essential services. It is the people in these services that are spreading the virus because they are still freely breathing into the air space and onto everything around them, especially food and drink. That has to stop now. They should be mandated to wear standard face masks. Why aren’t they? It is not because there of a shortage of masks. Any mask will do. If more folks not in hospitals wore masks we wouldn’t need as many in the hospitals. Get the word out now, to your mayors, politicians, the media your friends family and loved ones. Buy or make a mask and start wearing it today. A simple carpenters or painters mask will work. DO YOUR PART. HELP STOP THIS HORRIBLE VIRUS FROM SPREADING. Forget the toilet paper. VOLUNTARILY WEAR A MASK AND BESURE ESSENTIAL SERVICE FOLKS ARE WEARING A MASK. Don’t go near any essential service worker that is not wearing a mask. See more

Nanoplastics found to persist in potable water. March 16, 2020 The presence of plastics in natural waters has long been acknowledged as a threat to aquatic biota, and recent research on the persistence of nanoplastic particles now raises questions about implications for human health. The health implications of nanoplastic ingestion via drinking water, estimated by researchers as a few grams of plastic each month, are unknown. Almost eight trillion pieces of microplastics ...are believed to enter wastewater treatment plants daily and end up in aquatic environments, and more than 90% of tap water is thought to contain these invisible plastic pollutants. The widespread use and release of plastics in nature have raised global concerns about their impact on public health and the environment. While much research has been conducted on macro- and micro-sized plastics, the fate of nanoscale plastics remains unexplored. One nanometer (1 nm) is equal to 10-9 m or 0.000000001 m. (one-billionth of a meter). .A nanometer is 10 times smaller than the width of your DNA. One human hair is about 100,000 nanometers in diameter. Are you drinking lots of plastics, " Are you drinking almost a few grams of plastics every month or so. That should be concerning because you don’t know what will happen after 20 years. The water from "The Water Place" is sourced from underground springs in our large watershed and not from lakes. So we don't see these and other pollutants. Vince Nash

It seems like every time I turn around someone is sending me new information on the dire quality of water and lack of access to clean water. Every single province and many cities have been affected by a water crisis.Drinking water from single use plastic bottles and the tap are no longer safe options. When it comes to our water, we’re also exposed to a plethora of other toxic substances including microbes, pesticides, micro plastics, prescription meds, metals, fluoride and c...hlorine. And why should we care? Because we need clean water to survive. Water impacts every single cell in the body and makes up 90% of our blood. It helps our joints function so we can move; it helps us digest food and eliminate toxins; it delivers nutrients and oxygen throughout the body; it keeps our brains healthy and happy. The list goes on and on. ClearlyPure water filtration and separation REMOVES TOXIC CHEMICALS IN YOUR TAP WATER. over 20x more contaminants than the bestselling refrigerator and pitcher water filters. ClearlyPure removes the contaminants that you’ve read about in the news including lead, chromium 6, dangerous toxins like disinfection byproducts (carcinogens), perchlorate (rocket fuel), MTBE (gasoline additive), and prescription drug residue (think anti-depressants and hormones from birth control).

How Serious is Lead in the Water? Lead poses a serious health threat, especially for pregnant women, infants and young children. Lead exposure has been linked to the following issues in children: delays in physical development reduced IQs attention disorders... behavioral problems damage of growing brains Adults are also at risk. There is evidence linking lead exposure to kidney problems, high blood pressure and increased risks of cardiovascular deaths. Reverse osmosis is widely considered to be the BEST WAY to protect your household and reduce or remove lead from drinking water. During the reverse osmosis water treatment process, water is pushed (by household water pressure) through a series of filters. The membrane in the reverse osmosis system will filter out the lead and many other contaminants, only allowing water to pass through. The impurities are flushed away, leaving you with filtered, clean, delicious drinking water.
