– U S Hispanics High Risk for Arsenic in Drinking Water

U.S. Hispanics High Risk for Arsenic in Drinking Water NEW YORK, New York, December 17, 2020 (ENS) – Community water systems that fail to comply with the federal arsenic standard are most likely to occur in the Southwest, serving Hispanic communities, rural populations of around 1,000, and those who rely on groundwater, finds a new study from the Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health. Arsenic is a toxic human carcinogen and water contaminant present in many aquifers in the United States. The Mailman School researchers found that 38 percent of water systems serving Hispanic communities exceeded the safe maximum arsenic contaminant level, posing concerns about environmental justice.

Multigenerational living: More than a pandemic blip

For some, moving in with relatives during the pandemic has been a necessity. For many, though, living with extended family is a choice. The rise in multigenerational households that began in the 1980s shows no sign of stopping. There are practical advantages, of course. For 26-year-old Lindsay Brooks, living rent-free with her mom allowed her to pay off her student loans “10 times faster,” she says. Now, however, Ms. Brooks is thinking about moving out. “It definitely has been worth it,” she says. “But I think it’s important for people to set a timeline and not get caught down that rabbit hole of not having to pay for anything.”
