[@mattm6834]

There are many places in America where it is unsafe to drink tap water. If my house didn't have a filtration system similar to the one shown in the video installed the water would be unsafe to drink. And the homeowner pays to have the system installed.

Matt M I live in the Las Vegas Valley, the water is technically at safe levels BUT, it’s not recommended for pregnant women to drink. My house has a reverse osmosis filtration system that we use for cooking and drinking. The water here sometimes smells like sulfur and it tastes worse than Los Angeles tap water

[@tootz1950]

Actually most of the nation has undrinkable water. Not as poisonous as Flint has, but poisonous enough that the Republican head of the EPA just keeps raising the level of 'Safe Toxicity' so that the government can say it's healthy to drink. Anybody that drinks tap water is out of their mind.

Its from the regulated protective coating coming off because people are dumb.

@Adam Mocaby not really, just read about what the earth was like before the flood. It was the creation of cities and large industries that caused the earth to become so polluted. Much like today, the closer you get to a city the worse the air quality becomes. The worse the water becomes and the less wildlife you see. There used to be crawfish in DeKalb county Georgia. There aren't anymore. Only because of the amount of people and the amount of pollutants those people release. The bible warned us. If I'm wrong, use my bible and show me where I'm wrong. Show me that it doesn't read what I said about life before the flood.

[@chrism7067]

@@thebigbadhelmut472 go read It was more acidic because different cities treat water differently and thus PH is different. You dont just dump and filter water to get drinking water, its a whole chemical process to recycle the water we use. The water treatment the neighboring city used ate through the protective layer on the lead pipes laid down generations ago in flint. (which flint's water treatment had been accounting for over the years, was an over site. A very costly one, but an over site non the less)

Hello I live in Flint and I live by flint river. We have been given 77.7 million dollars to fix the pipes and they have (very slowly) been fixing the pipes but our water is still very bad. I’m truly sorry for those that live in flint as that less fortunate and pipes are still filled with lead. I’m happy that people are still helping my city and won’t give up until we get clean water.

[@morenag.7769]

Water is so precious!!!! Ugh.....stay humbled or be humbled. It breaks my heart. & infuriates me to know that they are still being subjected to tainted water!!!!!! Smh....🤦🏻‍♀️💆🏻‍♀️😠

[@grantcapel9884]

Morena G. Why don't you do something about it then?

[@grantcapel9884]

Cristian just saying that instead of commenting how bad it is, she could actually do something about it.

@@Marleychills No one person can help 100k people lmao. It's people who help other people. So why don't you shut up about how one person has to help 100k people to talk about not being "all talk no action"

Grant Capel I have....& continue to do do. Through a non profit Organization through our church. We help....I help...& will continue to do so.

I love jaden so much ❤️❤️he’s a great person and people don’t appreciate that

[@TheDwightMamba]

They run the box for 2 hours on Wednesday. It's a glorified filter system that can be put together at Home Depot for under $500. The box costs more.

[@decgal81]

Most people don't have $500 just laying around.

[@TheDwightMamba]

The Smith family should be furious their name is on this. The box costs more than the filtration. The flight to Flint cost them more than the company they paired with delivered.

[@TheDwightMamba]

And they only run the box for 2 hours on Wednesday. Something really shady is going on with this whole thing.

Thank you Moses West!!!

jaden is out here. droping amazing songs, performing at coachella, helping flint. and being an overall icon.

[@wuznab5109]

So what is your solution? A big filter.

[@cgreen777]

Filter rain water.

[@jenniferreneekelley1560]

My heart was filled with pure joy when I had witnessed this from my abode about this Water Box in Flint. And it wasn't anybody in city or state government who brought this Water Box out. It was the actions of an actor's brother.

[@angelnelson2012]

Man please i wouldve been moved from flint. Im not paying taxes bills nothing for a city that dont care about me sorry

[@GG-sp6ny]

Angel Nelson it’s hard to move from flint because they don’t have the money to move to another place. They lived their entire lives there and nobody wants to buy a house at flint. The people that could move already did.

[@zacharyjohnson3098]

@@GG-sp6ny honestly, if you have 2 working feet, it's not hard to move. I have moved plenty of times because I couldn't afford to live in LA or their was a better opportunity else where. You take a temporary loss, then you recover to be better than before.

"The human right to water and sanitation. On 28 July 2010, through Resolution 64/292, the United Nations General Assembly explicitly recognized the human right to water and sanitation and acknowledged that clean drinking water and sanitation are essential to the realisation of all human rights."

Trump cancelled all that!

THIS is CRAzy IT really made me cry .. God bless you Smith's ALWAYS. I wish to meet them and see if I can help with something even thoe I have NOTHING. but there's ALWAYS a solution to the problem. AMEN!!!...

Jayden is an amazing human. we are blessed to have him in this time. z

[@andykapsar4667]

took 16 minutes to explain a 4 stage water filter on wheels. it is encouraging to see people trying to make a difference for others. my only question was how often do the filters on this thing need changed?

[@manwhofumbles]

I think you are missing the point, it's not about the water filter, it's about how American, a first world country, has citizens who do not have access to clean water, and the governments refusal to admit that, it's about the community coming together to fix an issue

[@rebeccaelliott4261]

Matthew Resendez I think that the Notre dame cathedral raised half a billion dollars in a day for rebuilding. Seems like we should be able to fix the flint water problem 🤷🏻‍♀️

Not often I’d imagine since it’s filtering clean water.

Great job guys with the water box! I dont live far but i use to live there and some may think this was exaggerated and no it wasnt. God bless all those that still have to live through that hell.

[@advanced4945]

New found respect brother

[@briannacrane5689]

I’m not trying to be mean or disrespectful but what really made me upset was when at 1:13 when the person said that “ this has never happened in America before” referring to the water shortages. I would like to just bring light to the fact that a lot of Native American reserves in America have been without clean drinking water for generations, so flint is not the only place this is happening. The American government really needs to fix this water crisis all over America soon because a lot of people are suffering and nobody should be without clean drinking water. I hope nobody took this the wrong way

[@timrosencrans7955]

I think he was speaking of the crisis... there is no shortage in Flint... and it has happened exactly the same in Baltimore DC and New York
