We use water for drinking, cooking, washing, and cooling, and never consider that every day, in hundreds of ways, each of us is contributing to water pollution.

This program looks at the unsuspected environmental and health problems people unwittingly create at home, and offers suggestions on purchasing, storing, and using common household products and nontoxic alternatives.
