Survey finds creeks rivers of poor quality
Tara Smith | The Hamilton Spectator “It’s always been my belief the water, in these parts, is filthy, dirty and dishevelled. I’m not talking about being muddy, dirty – the water’s like rotten eggs. It’s just too dirty to drink. In the summertime, in the creeks, it looks so filthy – the green and brown stuff hanging from it – that it’s really gross. It’s not safe to drink there. I went from not caring to drinking. I think my mum came up with the idea when she came out with the idea that we should get rid of the trash for good. We were drinking it because it was so filthy. So people would come in their cars and go, ‘Oh my God. I’m going to drink your water.’
“There’s nothing you could do about it and it’s just been there. As you get older – I was 28 when I had my first son – you get used to being with water that’s dirty. In the last coupl골목e of years, the water is getting cleaner and cleaner. It’s been great to watch things get better but the only thing that makes me th청주출장마사지ink about it is this. If people can get rid of this stuff, who’s to say it w룰렛on’t happen again? My parents went through that and went out there and saw it, so, they did a lot of walking and they took off their clothes. People that are getting more educated, they get some sort of training and start to do some of the stuff that has been done before – taking the trash off. It’s been great.”
