Hello Friends! Welcome to another Myth Monday. Today let's talk about water facts!

🚫 Myth: "If water has contaminants, it's unsafe to drink.

✅ Fact: Believe it or not, it's normal for drinking water, yes, even bottled water, to contain tiny amounts of some contaminants.

But here's the kicker – not all contaminants make the water unsafe for consumption. Knowledge is your best filter! 🧐💡

Arm yourself with information and learn more about the potential effects of water contaminants by contacting the Environmental Protection Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline: 1-800-426-4791.

Did you know that no matter where you live, you're in a watershed? A watershed you may say "What's that"?

A watershed, also, known as a drainage basin, is an area of land where all the water under it or draining off of it collects into the same place- whether that be a creek, lake, or river.

The boundaries of a watershed are defined by the natural contours of the land. If you want to locate your watershed click on this link and view the area map: https://wilmingtonnc.maps.arcgis.com/

Happy ! Did you know that wetlands are natures own purification system? These beautiful and vital ecosystems play a critical role in protecting our water supply and by acting as a natural filter.

As water flows through wetlands, a remarkable process occurs. Wetlands work their magic through a combination of physical, chemical, and biological processes to intercept runoff from surfaces before it reaches open water bodies like rivers, lakes, and oceans.

Happy Arbor Day, everyone! Today, we stand together to honor the incredible role trees play in our lives and in the health of our planet.

🌍Did you know that planting trees is not just about beautifying our surroundings or providing shade?💚🌧️ Trees act like giant sponges, absorbing rainfall and reducing the risk of flooding, erosion, and water pollution.

Their roots filter water naturally, breaking down pollutants before they reach our rivers and lakes. This means cleaner water for us and for the environment!
