The War That Began In HeavenThe Bible reveals the existence of the heavenly creatures, wherein hundreds and millions of angels rejoiced in recognizing God as the Supreme Being and Creator of everything. The heavenly creatures were happy to honor His name and His Son Jesus Christ (Revelation 5:11). But not all the angels remained righteous. Unfortunately, a third of the angels chose to follow Lucifer, the most beautiful angel of the universe, to rebel against God and overthrow His heavenly government.

Have you ever thought about what would happen to you and your family if something similar were to happen in the area where you live? Would you be able to find drinking water that would be safe enough to drink? Since your body is 60% made up of water, water replenishment is essential for the continuation of life. In America, we all tend to take our clean drinking water for granted, because all we have to do is turn on the tap, and we have all the water we need. However, if an emergency were to strike, it could well contaminate public water supplies, and drinking that water could be lethal. So how do you know if your water has been contaminated? Read on for some information everyone needs to know. How does Water become Contaminated? If an emergency has occurred, you need to listen to any emergency broadcasts that are being made. Announcements will be made if the disaster has contaminated the public water systems. Weather disasters, such as a hurricane, a tornado, or an earthquake could throw the water system out of balance. Never drink tap water after an emergency until emergency personnel have told you it's safe. The water could be contaminated with bacteria and micro-organisms which would appear invisible to you but which could make you very sick. If you're outside, you don't want to just take it for granted that natural water sources are untainted, either. You could drink the water and ingest deadly bacteria which might not make you sick right away but which could incubate in your body and cause you to get seriously ill down the line. You may have no symptoms telling you that the water you drank was contaminated, but you may also start experiencing fever, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or bloody stools. Stay Away from Water that can Make you Sick Continue reading "Is There Water you Need to Avoid During a Disaster or Emergency Situation?"The Need for Even Better Municipal Water FiltrationMunicipal water filtration systems have been around for centuries. Even people several centuries back realized the need for safe, clean public water and started demanding it from their leaders. This demand was based on an Enlightenment period concept that people had certain natural rights, such as the right to drink and bathe in clean water. Philosophers of the era spent hours pondering on this topic, and the general consensus was that the people were right in their expectations. As a result, different water purification methods were introduced. In 1804, the first city-wide water filtration system began operation in Scotland, and the idea spread from there. In the modern era, we have all come to expect municipal water filtration as one of our unalienable rights.

These remains of microscopic plants are called diatoms, and together they form a white, odorless powder which has become quite useful to mankind. Not being an inventor, it's hard to imagine how someone figured out how to make a coating out of this material which, when applied to the pressure side of filter elements creates a filter that traps many different kinds of debris, but somehow this process has come into widespread use.
