Description
This paper analyzes the Flint, Michigan water crisis through research of water treatment in the United States. Pertinent scientific information is provided to serve as a background from which the reader can draw from to best understand the situation. The significance of water treatment in the context of sustainability is demonstrated through this descriptive case study of Flint. In ongoing efforts to supply safe drinking water to all communities, the comprehension of how the national framework works and why water is treated is paramount. Through the lens of society, this paper examines the science of water pollution, water treatment, treatment issues, and ensuing consequences. Water is a critical finite resource, and understanding how to most effectively use this limited resource is a major goal of the sustainable agenda.
