Reminder to California’s. Those aren’t Tootsie Rolls on the streets of San Francisco.
We should have stopped after Velcro....
Kalifornia: Easting where it poops!
I live where we mostly live on wells.
A ‘town” water company tried to EXPAND over 7 miles to force us off our wells.
One guy in our protesting group did some research after I asked him:
“
WHEN people use drugs, what percentage of those drugs stay in the body & what percentage is excreted by the body?”
His research found that it hovers around 50-50.
THERE ARE NO TREATMENTS OR FILTERS THAT CLEAN ANY OF THOSE DRUGS OUT OF THAT WATER...
THAT INCLUDED EVEN ASPIRIN.
Hook it up to the governor’s mansion and state house first, just to be sure.
Cauliphonyans will be sucking up all those drugs that go down their toilets.
Welcome to the Third World, California!
Its been around for YEARS!
Its called the well/septic system. Usually found in rural areas.
The Dinosaurs were not on any meds or drugs.
Good one it sounds just like something one would hear in California.
BLEACH! the same bleach leftists were claiming hydroxychloroquine was BLEACH and ridiculed President Trump for merely suggesting the investigation of the drug’s efficacy. Just wondering what magic potion they’re gonna use to rid the sewer water from fecal coliform and all the other nasties. Good on them.
too bad the morons who write these articles are totally clueless about the “purification” processeses involved, which is why they wave their hands a lot and don’t include any actual information ...
here’s what the actual purification process is:
https://purewater4u.org/how-purified-water-works/
1. Microfiltration
In this process, treated wastewater is pumped through filtration vessels that contain thousands of hollow fibers, similar to straws. The walls of these fibers have very fine pores, only 0.1 micron in diameter or about 300 times smaller than the width of a human hair. As the water flows through the pores into the center of the fibers; solids, bacteria, protozoa and some larger viruses are filtered out.
2. Reverse Osmosis
Reverse Osmosis forces water under high pressure through membrane sheets with pores so small that chemicals the size of water molecules are generally the only substances that can pass through. The process removes viruses, bacteria, pharmaceuticals, large chemicals, and pesticides as well as organic matter.
3. Ultraviolet Light
After microfiltration and reverse osmosis, the water is exceptionally clean but as an additional safety measure, the water is sent through chambers that emit ultraviolet light to inactivate any remaining viruses and break down some of the remaining trace contaminants. Ultraviolet light is a powerful disinfection process that produces high-quality water and is highly efficient at destroying pathogens. This technique is also often used to sterilize medical equipment, foods, and fruit juices.
4. Advanced Oxidation
Valley Water is in the process of adding advanced oxidation to our pilot system for research and demonstration purposes. Advanced Oxidation is a process in which trace amounts of hydrogen peroxide is added to the water to reinforce disinfection. Future purification facilities will include this process at full-scale. Valley Water has chosen to implement this process to go above and beyond the required minimum level of treatment mandated by the State Division of Drinking Water regulations for advanced purified water. This will ensure high-quality water that meets drinking quality standards.
[the above much better water than the normal process of standard sewage treatment that dumps the so-called “treated” wastewater downstream so the next town further down the river can pick it up, add some flocculant chemicals, run it through sand filtration beds, and zap the krap out of it with chlorine, distribute it, collect the wastewater and rinse and repeat until the river empties into an ocean ...]
“THERE ARE NO TREATMENTS OR FILTERS THAT CLEAN ANY OF THOSE DRUGS OUT OF THAT WATER...”
both reverse osmosis and distillation remove all of that and much more ... RO is MUCH cheaper than distillation, though ...
Excellent news...
Of course, most of the CA population (the MIVs) are accustomed to drinking waste-polluted water already...
The result will be something those making the law will hate - millions more California residents will become buyers of bottled water for drinking and cooking. The lawmakers will hate the additional purchases of plastic bottles of water, ‘cause, ya know, just like gasoline plastic is “bad”.
