RE: Purifying Water with Calcium Hypochlorite

in #foraging7 years ago

What a fantastic and detailed discussion of water purification. So many people have no idea, and it wouldn't take much disruption of infrastructure in an area for people to find themselves without potable water. Urban dwellers can be as much if not at higher risk as public utilities can fail during a disaster. Knowing the basics empowers us to be ready and to help our neighbor if stuff goes sour. Thanks!

Thank you, you are 100% correct. We have seen it happening over and over for weeks and months at a time after a natural disaster. Look at Puerto Rico, there are still people without safe drinking water. One person having $15 worth of Calcium Hypochlorite could have provided over 1/4 million gallons of water for them. It sort of makes you wonder why Governments don't stockpile it for emergencies.
