Water that’s safe to drink should ideally be clear with no odor or funny taste. One way to tell if water is contaminated is to look for turbidity or cloudiness. According to an Environmental Working Group’s review of government water analysis, 75% of America’s drinking water is ridden with cancer-causing hexavalent chromium or chromium-6. And 200 million Americans are currently being exposed to it.

Chromium-6 is a heavy metal categorized as a Group 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization or WHO. The same heavy metal Erin Brockovich brought to attention, it’s a by-product of industrial manufacturing and is known to cause cancer even in minute concentrations.

California scientists labeled it dangerous when it surpasses a mere 0.02 parts per billion — the equivalent of one drop of water in an Olympic-sized swimming pool.

Research has exposed that no level is safe in your water, however. A two-year study conducted by the National Toxicology Program (2008) concluded that drinking water with traces of chromium-6 resulted in cancer among the test subjects.

The EWG reported:

“The California scientists based their public health goal of 0.02 parts per billion solely on protecting people from cancer and other diseases. Public health goals are not legally enforceable, but legal limits are supposed to be set as close as possible to health goals “while considering cost and technical feasibility.”

“But the California Department of Public Health relied on a flawed analysis that exaggerated the cost of treatment and undervalued the benefits of stricter regulation, and adopted a legally enforceable limit of 10 parts per billion.”

In order to ensure you are not ingesting it, you would have to take your water to a specialized lab for testing.

Some unethical companies say that eating heavy metals like lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium is good for you because they are “naturally occurring.”  Reminds me of a pharma shill doctor named Paul Offit when he publicly stated aluminum is good for a growing baby in the womb. Oh and that a baby can handle 10,000 vaccines at once.  America’s self-proclaimed “vaccine expert.” They really do think we’re stupid folks.

But if that’s the case, then chromium-6, which is also naturally occurring, and causes cancer, must be beneficial as well.

The EPA website said:

“Chromium-6 occurs naturally in the environment from the erosion of natural chromium deposits. It can also be produced by industrial processes. There are demonstrated instances of chromium being released to the environment by leakage, poor storage, or inadequate industrial waste disposal practices.”

EPAwatch.org tested hundreds of municipal water samples across the nation and discovered high levels of lead and other heavy metals in 6.7% of samples.

Does anyone remember the movie, Erin Brockovich?  Is that ringing a bell now? What about Flint, Michigan who STILL has lead in their water?  It’s bad enough the water is being fluoridated. What the hell is going on America? You’re being poisoned. Wake up. Stop consenting. Silence in compliance.  

Human rights abuses going on everywhere.  Just pick one to care about. Just one. That would make me so happy.  I feel like I’m screaming from the rooftops and nobody hears me sometimes.  Some of this is heavy stuff I write about. I’m human too. This crisis we’re facing is unbelievable.  So unbelievable most of the population in this country is still completely clueless about what is going on in their own backyards.
