HOLY SHIT MILWAUKEE IS ON THIS LIST @know-your-historical-context @over—emotional @randomfandomthoughts @helladierberger
There are MAJOR CITIES on this list what the FUCK
http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/jun/02/lead-water-testing-cheats-chicago-boston-philadelphia More information on this here. Holy fuck.
I go to school in Detroit and they had to box up all of the drinking fountains in one of the buildings because the lead levels were too high
Wait is the fact that Boston’s tap water is shit not common knowledge? I go to BU and a Brita/similar filter pitcher is on literally every freshman dorm-life supply list they provide.
Brita pitchers don’t get out lead though…only the faucet attachments do.
