This Halloween Lets Meet Some Real-Life Villains And Superheroes

Quick Answer: The most dangerous drinking water contaminants include lead (a neurotoxin, with no safe level), arsenic (a carcinogen), PFAS (persistent endocrine disruptors), hexavalent chromium (another carcinogen), and nitrates (a big risk for infant health). Reverse osmosis with NSF-certified pre-filtration removes all of these contaminants really well.

\n\nBefore you even think about your Halloween costume, do you really know all the characters out there? Halloween, celebrated every October 31st, is usually a blast, with costume parties getting better each year. We could dress up as superheroes like Spiderman, Batman, or even the lesser-known Green Lantern. Or maybe famous villains like the Joker and Dracula. But those are all fictional, right? What if we made this Halloween extra special by playing a real-life villain or superhero instead?\n

The real-life villains

\nFor many of us, this might sound a bit strange, maybe even cheesy, but the environment has been battling pollution for ages. With its army of bad guys like The Nasty Air Pollution, The Sickening Water Pollution, and The Deafening Sound Pollution, Pollution has way more powerful villains than Stan Lee ever dreamed up. The weird thing is, we don’t even know most of these villains, the ones that silently, invisibly roam the earth. Their work is actually pretty impressive, considering they’ve been lurking for decades, slowly eating away at our planet’s life without us even noticing.\n\nOne villain, as determined and gritty as Thanos himself, is The Sickening Water Pollution. It’s been around since the Industrial Age in the early 1900s, and today, it’s a huge danger to Earth. At first, the pollution wasn’t enough to hurt innocent lives, but it grew massively because we ignored it. For decades, this monster has been causing serious trouble worldwide. \n

    \n \t

  • It kills millions of people every day with its disease-ridden contents, and it also kills animals and plants.
  • \n \t

  • People have reported terrible diarrhea, typhoid, cholera, and hepatitis after contact with this villain.
  • \n \t

  • The Sickening Water Pollution uses chemicals, bacteria, and germs as weapons to attack the health of innocent civilians.
  • \n \t

  • People have even died from dehydration because this pollution left no water safe to drink.
  • \n

\nIndustrialization and people ourselves are some of the reasons water pollution grew so much. But just like Stan Lee created memorable villains and then everlasting superheroes to defeat them, humans have too!\n

At last! A Superhero!

\nFrom a humble chemist’s lab came a technology built to help people fight this monster. Jean-Antoine Nollet, back in 1748, discovered osmosis through a semi-permeable membrane between two solutions with different concentrations. Almost 200 years later, in 1950, the University of California, Los Angeles, tried to reverse that process and use it to desalinate water, turning polluted water into safe drinking water. That’s how our savior, Reverse Osmosis, was born. Everyone knows it as RO, and this superhero has done everything possible to save people from The Sickening Water Pollution. Our favorite Reverse Osmosis, or RO, has:\n

    \n \t

  • A fantastic semipermeable membrane that blocks every harmful element pollution secretly sends into the water.
  • \n \t

  • It sometimes teams up with the awesome Captain Ultra Violet to fight microorganisms and bacteria together.
  • \n \t

  • When things get really tough, RO calls in backup from The Activated Carbon Men, who hold back chlorine and other chemicals, fending off their attack.
  • \n \t

  • It even invites The Tasting Team now and then to help add minerals to the water, making it taste better and improving our health.
  • \n

\nStarting in one home at a time, this hero has now reached industries and other areas on a much larger scale. Now, RO helps fight the awful acts of The Sickening Water Pollution in oil fields, hotels, factories, military water purification units, seawater desalination plants, and even our homes.\n
