In recent news, Obama is issuing a crackdown on the Clean Water Act. What this means for those who filter and purify our drinking water is that they will have to be more aware of what nearby farmers, plants, and residential areas can't do. Certain fertilizers will be banned anywhere near the purification plants/streams due to unsafe runoff.
Teddy Roosevelt would have been very pleased to see Obama take this initiative on clean drinking water, it also would have greatly affected those during the Great Depression because of all the dry soil and dirt contaminating their drinking water.
