Too many folks flush pharmaceuticals down the drain, and these medications end up in the water we drink.
That's because water treatment systems cannot eliminate 100% of these drugs. It's a growing problem, and who wants traces of painkillers, veterinary meds, birth control hormones, anti-depressants or other prescription drugs in our eight glasses of water a day?
So the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District is collecting medications for proper disposal, as a public service, this Saturday, June 9th, at Miller Park, from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Details here.
