toxic waters.


the nytimes is doing a series called "toxic waters."
the topics of note:
  • agricultural run-off is the biggest source of water pollution. yes, e. coli. and more.
  • more pollution since the clean water act. few companies in trouble.
  • herbicides and atrazine and the question of chemicals in growing crops.
  • people in AMERICA that cannot drink the drinking water because it is so dangerous.
  • an interactive feature to find out who is polluting your water.
also. bottled water companies are capitalizing on this moment to sell you more water in plastic.

we hate the word "moist." i certainly do and michelle does, too. so there.

good did an entire issue on water. maybe i mentioned this before? it is pretty impressive.

and, yes that IS a glacier in iceland in that photo. thanks for asking.
