EPA studies pollution in Yakima water (water pollution)

I read an article about water pollution today. The title is "EPA studies pollution in Yakima water". The main point is that The U.S Environmental Protection Agency is handling ground water contamination in the Lower Yakima Valley. The EPA action wants to deal with the long-standing problems of nitrates which is an odorless compound found in soil and water.

In conclusion, The EPA makes a plan to examine ways to claim the underground water contaminaion. In these days, with the develpment of the society, we have to care more about environment for our generation.

Hi Woo,

You've got the beginnings of a good topic. Water quality is really important, especially here in Minnesota. It's the land of 10,000 lakes! I think the article you read gave a little bit of useful information (like how I used the word useful?!) but I think you could tell us even more about this topic.

Could you tell us more about water pollution and how it affects us here in Minnesota? Here's an article for you to read and listen to:

Even it is a short topic but it was an interesting one, Woo. Water means life, no life without water. We have a serious problem in our country which is water Salinity.
