All those birth control pills the ladies take, end up back in our tap water.). I read somewehre that the U.S. could filter it's water 1000x more than they do now, and it wouldn't reduce the pharma toxins by more than 1%.

There is a way to help reverse these effects, however, it is not implimented currently on any large scale. "Reverse Osmosis", forcing the smaller water molecules through a membrane filter which traps the larger molecules like pharma, metals etc...

Some more stuff to think about.
