Clean Air... Poison Water

     So many Utah citizens are excited for the prospect of rain or snow to clear out the smog in the air. Unfortunately, this does not mean it's really gone and not a problem anymore, it just means that the problem has taken on a new form; the rain or the snow. The well known term for this is "Acid Rain". It is a relief to have cleaner air and clearer landscapes but we still need to be on guard for the harmful chemicals that are now in our water supply and have seeped into our ground. For example, those who are excited for spring to come so they can garden and grow their own food are especially in danger of this acid rain watering their plants and becoming part of their food. No matter what form this pollution takes it is a great hazard.
