It's well-known that water quality is of vital importance to a person's health but is often difficult to measure, so MyTapWater.org is a new platform that will help consumers access pertinent data that is regionally specific.
The platform works by boasting an easy-to-use interface that keeps all of the United States drinking water quality data accessible in one spot for consumers to comb through. This helps consumers and visitors to know just what's in the water they're drinking and whether they might need to use a filtration system to ensure they aren't consuming unwanted amounts of certain contaminants.
MyTapWater.org is one of a growing number of solutions that speak to resource scarcity as consumers become more concerned with availability and/or quality.
