I am staying in a nice hotel in San Jose where the tap water comes out of the tap merkey and tastes a little toxic. It is ironic to me that I can fly from Barranquilla, Colombia to Anywhere, USA and find tap water that appears to be lower in quality (who knows what kind of particulate matter could be found in each).
Another interesting piece? A study by the U.S. Geological Survey shows there could be future water shortages in the Great Lakes area if communities don't make long term water plans. How can this even be a possibility in a place that hold one fifth of the world's fresh water supply?
