That comes as a shock to me, if it’s true that USA’s water quality is low. I honestly would of thought it was one of the best considering the technoligcal advances of the USA. Actually on a different note, my sister has always stayed away from regular milk because of scares of the hormones cows receive nowadays.

Sadly, water always has a chance of being polluted. I make sure to filter or boil my water to be on the safe side.
I live in the country and use well water. I have great concern about water quality, as we have no filtering system whatsoever. Other than removing sediment, our water comes up as is. Because of this, we make sure to use no chemicals on our grass or pesticides on plants. But, does that really help, when so many others do? Even if these antibiotics are not reaching the water supply now, will they eventually? Only time will tell.
The research was funded with $568,000 from the CALFED Bay-Delta Authority Drinking Water Program, which is administered by the California State Water Resources Control Board, and $65,000 from the California Department of Food and Agriculture, using funds collected from dairy producers to support research and marketing. really that much?
We’ll just have to filter our water, and try to remind those who don’t to filter their water as well.
