The 90-Day Plan: DAY 32

DAY 32
 

Recent studies indicate that traces of medicine, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products are showing up in our drinking water.  PROPERLY DISPOSE of UNUSED PILLS and do not flush them down the toilet.  This is an activity that requires adult supervision.
 

Challenge:  How do medicines harm aquaculture?  Are other people's prescriptions good for you? Where might concentrations be the highest?  Unfortunately drinking bottled water may not solve this problem.  See for yourself, this has the potential for a great deal of concern.
