Fluoride in our Drinking Water
The subject of fluoride being added to our water has come up again in the local paper and if council passes the legislation this year it will be added mid 2018.
Fluoride is a drug and we should not be medicated against our will through our drinking water. Chronic intake actually has a detrimental effect on tooth enamel and to bones causing among other things, mottled teeth, brittle bones and joint pain. It negatively effects the thyroid gland and can cause permanent damage to the digestive system and nervous system. Even if it's in trace amounts, it accumulates in the body, we cannot filter it out easily and some people drink a lot of water because it is supposed to be good for us. We should be entitled to uncontaminated drinking water. To see how toxic it is, just look up the Material Safety Data Sheet for Sodium Fluoride. An extract is attached. Just wondering what other locals think about it.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
