Every morning, I look forward to waking up to a fresh, crisp drink of sparkling tap water. However, today was different. When I took the first sip, I noticed a strange aftertaste of the water. It tasted a little acidic. I was then concerned and knew something was wrong. As a scientist, I had fixed many problems of this kind, but none have been quite like this. Most problems in this area have been because of the Louisville Water Company (LWC). Although that might have been the problem, I doubted it. I first checked the LWC. They had noticed the problem before I had even arrived, and they had expected to see me. They had triple checked the purification system and arrived at this conclusion; there was a toxic waste in the Ohio River. Just as I had thought from the very beginning. This was a serious problem. I had to act fast. I immediately contacted my research team. We started testing the river for many toxins such as lead, mercury, and other industrial toxic wastes. First, we checked the river for mercury. Mercury is one of two elements that is a liquid at room temperature.
