Peer-reviewed science reveals fluoride’s role as a “chemical trigger” for Flint’s water crisis.

Flint River water: The “perfect storm”, where physical chemistry clashes with biochemistry in Flint’s water system

• Erin Brockovich and Bob Bowcock’s 2/17/15 advice should be implemented ASAP, to improve public health and halt still-expanding legal liabilities.
• Click the links below for peer-reviewed science and documents showing: a) What went wrong with Flint’s water, b) Problems still embedded in Flint’s water supplies, and c) Competing fixes by Flint’s mayor and Michigan’s governor, that are either needlessly expensive, or yield minimal/erratic/temporary lead reductions.

• Combinations of fluoridation/disinfection chemicals “spike” lead levels in children’s blood and in tap water

• Biofilm isn’t a comprehensive  mitigation for Flint’s lead problems

• Partial replacement of lead service lines causes galvanic corrosion, which massively increases lead released to water

• Flint’s past, present, and future water treatment chemicals weren’t selected to minimize lead exposure

• Background – Flint’s water

• Washington DC’s lead in tap water crisis, 2000 to 2004
