With around 60% of our body made of water, making sure we stay properly hydrated is one of the most important things we can do as humans. What we do when we wake up sets the tone for the rest of the day. Although Founding Father John Adams started his mornings with a …

The road to #environmentaljustice is long, and requires brave neighbours to see it through.

Poison in the water: the town with the world’s worst case of #foreverchemicals #contamination:

When a small Swedish town discovered their drinking #water contained extremely high levels of #Pfas, they had no idea what it would mean for their #health and their children’s future

Major Nickel Supplier Harita Knew About Water Contamination at Indonesian Operation for a Decade

The Harita Group, a major Indonesian conglomerate, persistently found high levels of the carcinogenic chemical chromium-6 in waters around its nickel mine, which opened in 2010.

The conglomerate’s own internal tests showed chromium-6 levels regularly breaching Indonesian legal limits for a decade.

Leaked emails show senior Harita executives were aware of the pollution since at least 2012.

Residents in the area say they received no warnings about pollution, and the conglomerate has repeatedly stated that local water is safe to drink.

Harita did not respond to repeated requests for comment. It has previously stated that its operations were in compliance with local environmental regulations, despite continuing internal reports of chromium-6 levels that exceeded legal limits. Harita also implemented a series of measures to control the pollution, including installing ponds to collect toxic runoff and carrying out chemical treatments.

MIT News: Window-sized device taps the air for safe drinking water. “The system runs entirely on its own, without a power source, unlike other designs that require batteries, solar panels, or electricity from the grid. The team ran the device for over a week in Death Valley, California — the driest region in North America. Even in very low-humidity conditions, the device squeezed drinking […]

#RFK. Jr. Has Unlikely Allies in His Drive to Limit #Atrazine
In Europe, #weedkiller atrazine has been banned for nearly two decades because of its suspected links to reproductive problems like reduced sperm quality and birth defects.
In the #UnitedStates, it remains one of the most widely used #pesticides, sprayed on #corn, #sugarcane and other #crops, result of years of industry #lobbying. It has been detected in #drinkingwater of 40M Americans.
