How
clean and safe is your drinking water?Well, I assume that it's clean enough... I'm not dead yet!
Jeremy, 14

I've never died from it.

The local propaganda tells me that the local
drinking water is very clean and safe. I haven't come down with dysentery or cholera
lately, so I guess it's true.
Laura, 36

I live in a rural area and our well water is
tested regularly.
Jill, 60
Saylorsburg, PA USA
It's clear. I haven't died from it. Beyond
that I prefer not to think about it.
Firelady, 23

My drinking water tests out as being
extremely good and safe, though it doesn't have the greatest flavor in the world. I
preferred NYC water for flavor.
Jane, 60
West Linn, OR
USA
According to reports it's some of
the cleanest in the country but we still filter it at home.

have no idea. I don't drink it though.

Well assuming by "clearn" you mean
clean, I would say very! My dad works at the water plant, so I know our water is safe.

mY DRINKING WATER IS NOT REAL CLEAR AS THERE
IS IRON AND SULPHUR. YOU SEE WE HAVE WELL WATER. WHEN WE FIRST MOVED HERE 25 YEARS AGO WE
ONLY NEEDED A SOFTENER AND SO THEREFORE COULD NOT DRINK IT BECAUSE OF THE SALT. IN 1982
THEY DRILLED A GAS WELL WITHIN A FEW FEET OF OUR WELL AND OUR WATER HAS GOTTEN WORSE
SINCE. I CONTACTED THE STATED BUT THEY SAID THEY COULD DO NOTHING. THEREFORE WE BUY OUR
DRINKING WATER. THAT IS THE ONE THINK I MISS ABOUT THE CITY, GOOD DRINKING AND
WASHING WATER FOR CLOTHES.

I drink arrowhead, and it's pretty
safe. Sometimes I drink from the tap. I don't know if
it's safe, but I've never gotten sick. I heard once that L.A. tap water got an award for
the best-tasting tap water in the country for something like that.
Eric, 19
Beverly Hills, CA USA
Our tap water has actually become a little
murky in the last few months-so we've started drinking purified bottled water.
Angela, 16
Bella Vista, AR USA
My drinking water is 99.9% clean - at least
that's what it says on the label.
Reba, 51
Rockville, MD
USA
My drinking water is quite fine. I'm still
alive to write about it...and it even tastes pretty good, so I'm not concerned.
Fisch, 45
Preston, CT
USA
its not!! lol first of all it tastes
funny, like flat water. second of all, in the pond
where they get it out of, once a pipe burst and raw sewage was floating around for a
while. third of all, in another pond (the back-up pond where they get the water supply),
they have signs posted not to go swimming, becuz if you do you'll get this crazy rash.
there have also been rumors of 3-eyed fish in weymouth water but no one has quite
confirmed that yet ;)
Karen2, 15
Boston, MA
USA
Dunno. I drink it and haven't
died yet, so it must be alright. ;)
Talia, 23
Wilton, CT
USA
I dunno really. I live a big city so I
assume that the drinking water is fine. But if it is unsafe, I dont know about it yet and
it hasn't had any bad effects.
Stephanie, 25
TX USA
I dread to think how many chemicals are in
it, but it doesn't seem to be doing me any harm.
Shanna, 16
Cardiff ENGLAND
(Lots of typos in these questions
lately!) I actually ave no idea. I don't think about it
much. We used to have water delivered, but we don't anymore. It doesn't really matter to
me - I haven't died yet, so I'm okay with it.
etoile, 20
Washington, DC USA
I hope it's clean. There's enough chlorine
in it.
Jennifer, 19
Wilkes-Barre, PA USA
It's a lot cleaner than the well water we
used to get
Melodi, 19
Gahanna, OH
USA
We've had it tested many times, and they say
it's safe, but...we just drink bottled water. And I even sometimes wonder about that.
Especially since I turn out to be allergic to Floride which is suppost to help you and
noty harm you and is an additive in nearly every water system.
Jaden, 21
Brampton, Ontario CANADA
we have some of the best drinking water in
the world. it's safe to drink from the tap.
Becky, 16
AUSTRALIA
Haven't gotten around to testing it.
Though water in Lowell has been rated some of the best in the state
Felicia, 35
Lowell, MA
USA
I don't
really want to know! I hate when they come out with those studies that tells you all the
terrible things in your water, but everywhere you go there's going to be at least one or
two things in the water that are harmful. It's just making sure that there's not too much
of it!
