This is Still a Problem?


New York Times posted this interesting article on its website about how Millions of people in the US still have contaminated drinking water.

According to the article
More than 20 percent of the nation’s water treatment systems have violated key provisions of the Safe Drinking Water Act over the last five years


This was something you would expect in a developing country such as India or China, not back home. And while according to the article, it only seems to be happening in towns with a population of 20,000 or less, it should still be acted upon with the utmost speed and urgency.
