LONO HO'ALA - AUTHOR, SPEAKER, AND INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED
EXPERT ON DRINKING WATER AND WATER TREATMENT ISSUES |
|
Lono’s expertise is important to those who want to insure that they and their families have a safe and adequate supply of drinking water.
The nation’s drinking water crisis revolves around four main issues:
- Exponential growth in demand has far exceeded our ability to find suitable new sources of supply;
- In many parts of the country, existing supplies are becoming increasingly polluted;
- New understandings about the health consequences of common water contaminants are causing people to demand safer water at their tap;
- Across the nation, aging water treatment plants and equipment are unable to adequately guarantee the safety of drinking water supplies.
Since 9/11, the threat of terrorist attacks on our nation’s drinking water supplies has added a new and very troubling dimension to the problem.
Lono is frequently called to engineer treatment systems for difficult water problems. With his background in Biochemistry and leading edge water treatment technology he brings a valuable perspective to issues involving water.
From Lono's perspective, government is not doing enough to encourage people to take personal responsibility for the quality of their water supplies, nor is it supporting economic reforms that are necessary for it to do the job it claims to do. This puts the water consumer square in the middle of a dilemma.
People who choose not to install a quality water treatment appliance to filter their tap water are unknowingly made the subjects of an experiment to determine which chemicals added to water are dangerous and which are not. On the other hand, people who want to be responsible for the quality of their drinking water become confused using inadequate information when trying to decide which water treatment appliances are best for them.
Lono's book "Don't Drink the Water (without reading this book)" is part of Lono's ongoing efforts to help resolve this dilemma. Along with this website, the responsible consumer can become aware of the pros and cons of each technology, how to separate the hype from reality, and which questions to ask when purchasing a water treatment system.
This site is not only a valuable resource for difficult-to-find water information, but is one of the only truly independent sites that gives unbiased reviews water treatment products based on Lono's Eight Point Guide to Water Treatment Systems.
