Troubled Water: What's Wrong with What We Drink

American drinking water is more contaminated than you think. Not just in places like Flint, Michigan but in big cities and small, suburbs and rural farmsteads, chemicals linked to cancer, birth defects, heart disease and worse are found. Troubled Water examines the dangers it poses and what can be done to make it safe. A disaster this large has a lot of factors: the EPA, Congress, governors and mayors, chemical companies, and drinking water utilities—even NASA and the Pentagon. Other options,m such as bottled water, are even less regulated. Siegel explains how we can cure decades of neglect to restore the most precious resource we have.
