America's Environmental Report Card: Are We Making the Grade?
Harvey Blatt
While the information presented here may not be "new news," plenty of interesting facts are made available, including the breakdown of water usage in the U.S. An astounding 41.2% of all water usage is attributed to toilet flushing!!! Also included in the water chapter is a list of synthetic chemicals in our water supply, and from which industries they come. Some very interesting facts are supplied which are new news, at least to me; did you know that hazardous waste can be legally injected into the ground??? Easy to read, easily understandable, with pie charts, a guaranteed visual aid!
