Act Now to Protect Yourself from Oil Leak Toxic/Carcinogenic Drinking Water

While President Obama, Senate Committees,Secretary of the Interior Salazar, and Republican Drill Baby Drill advocates continue to point fingers and play the blame game those who live along the Gulf Coast will be drinking toxic, carcinogenic water poisoned by enormous the oil leak. As the oil saturates wet lands along the coast, not only will sea life perish and sicken but so will human lives gradually be poisoned. The wetlands are filters that ordinarily helps purify water that enters ground water aquifers that become drinking water sources. The aquifers that are fed by ground water drainage through coastal wetlands will become more toxic daily as organic chemicals contained in crude oil continually enter the aquifers. The carcinogenic contaminants will inevitably pollute drinking water in Gulf communities that depend upon ground water. Municipal water treatments cannot remove all of the toxins and slowly they will accumulate in humans causing irreparable harm if individual actions are not taken. Everyone using municipal or well water must purify the water they drink and use for cooking, etc. as soon as possible. Consult your local companies that specialize in home water purification systems and get one for your home now. Also purchase a TDS (total dissolved solids) monitor to get a measure of purification effectiveness.

Act now to help protect your health and your loved ones. Do not rely on either local or federal government assurances that all is well. They will be misleading you if that is what they tell you. Protect yourself while the blame game continues.
