As I was researching on how livestock can cause water pollution, this video came across handy to explain briefly about the potentials dangers related to livestock. Particularly, the video highlighted about families drinking distilled water ever since they found out about how untreated livestock manure contaminated groundwater aquifers in Idaho, USA.
In addition, the video also highlighted that consistent monitoring for groundwater quality is relatively limited in the USA, hindering the response needed to tackle the issues of contaminated groundwater.
Do feel free to check this video out for a quick understanding of livestock-induced water pollution!
In the next post, we will go in-depth into water pollution as a result of livestock production. Catch ya then!
