Heavy Metal U.S.A.: Part 2 -- Lead

New lead emissions usually from airborne contamination

Thank the water transport system for keeping our climate working by redistributing and recycling our valuable H2O resources. Similarly, water (the "universal solvent") takes particulate contamination (like lead) from the atmosphere and moves it back to the ground -- into groundwater or sinking it like a "lead" brick into our wells and aquifers. 

Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow

Recently, lead paint was in the news -- this time in an ongoing lawsuit settled against several paint manufacturers.  According to court documents "60,000 children under the age of 6 suffered from lead poisoning between 2007 and 2010 in the affected California jurisdictions."
