With all of the other disasters happening in America there is one thing that we haven't been hearing enough about, which I think is a very important issue.
When farms are factorized, so that they can mass produce meat and dairy products, the rest of the population is breathing contaminated air and drinking contaminated water.
Luckily, not too long ago, there was a law passed which is suppose to keep the Farmers from depositing waste into our water supply and to keep it from building up in the air that we breath.
The problem with this law is that if there isn't enough over sight within the Farm Factories then there could be a repeat of an incident which happened in 2001, that took place because the waste product from the animals wasn't taken care of properly which then resulted in pollution of drinking water in that area.
I am including two videos for you to view.
I am also including a link for you to check out for more info.
