The Milwaukee River Gets Lower Grade




            The Milwaukee River has been a victim of pollution year after year. And it looks that 2013 won’t be any different. In this new year the river has already been tested and the results showed that the river has been struck by an assortment of ecological factors. Including but not limited to soil fertilizers, road salts, and even human waste. Like EWWWW!
            Make more effective inventions that can keep all of the corrupt stuff away.
They can build a sewer type of contraption that can keep the road salts, runoff rain that carries fertilizer and other elements that could damage the river even further. And when it come to the human waste, the should do anything possible to stop it from getting in the river. That can get countless numbers of animals and people sick.
            The making of the inventions can be very costly and the state might not have to money to do it. The funds for this kind of project might be hard to get and people might not want to help. Its all in the will power, which it is what some people in the United States lack.
            I believe that the state should continue with the test and make the grade the rivers get a public awareness thing. The people should know what is in the rivers they live nearby. Then and only then I feel like people would start to care more. This to me is a serious problem because water is one of the resources we take for granted on this planet and maybe in a very distant future all of the water will be gone or contaminated. Something that would be very tragic to human kind.
