Arsenic in drinking water is odorless, colorless, and quietly devastating — linked to cancer, cardiovascular disease, and cognitive decline at levels the EPA still considers legal. Chapter 13 of Make Water Your Business walks through the geography of arsenic contamination in American groundwater and what a home test actually reveals. The signal every household deserves: test your water, because your senses will never warn you.
