In 2014 large amounts of lead made its way into Flint Michigan water system.

The people

of Flint not only bathed in the water they cooked and drunk the water. Nearly 9,000 kids have

contracted lead poisoning. Lead poisoning can lead to permanently damaging the brain. Not only

does it cause mental problems but it can also cause physical problems as well. It not only

concerns Flint it concerns the whole US. What make you think that it wouldn't happen here in

Cincinnati. Is any of us really safe. The biggest solution is to get new pipes which is up to 55

million dollars. I would rather pay to get new pipes for Flint then pay for a wall.

The purpose the article The flint water crisis: whats really going on? was to address

the Flint water crisis from the chemistry point of view. Adrian Dingle has been teaching

chemistry (and chemistry alone), since 1990. Andrian Dingle, in the article, " The Flint water

crisis: What's really going on?", he writes, "In the spring of 2014, large amounts of lead found

their way into the water that some residents of Flint, Mich., were using to drink, cook, and brush

their teeth. ".
