Arsenic is one of the world’s most deadly killers.
It may take years to manifest and lead to a slow painful death.
With so many people at risk of arsenic poisoning, arsenicosis, it is imperative to find a remedy to mitigate arsenic from the groundwater.
A lot of filtration systems have been and are being tried and tested, many of which rely on chemicals to remove the arsenic.
But one born and bred Australian has taken a different approach- 'Consuming the Arsenic'.
'Consuming the Arsenic' can also be linked with 'The Devil's Water' audio - the 'biggest mass poisoning of humans ever known' due to one of the world's most deadly killers - arsenic.
Listen to the Audio extract here. It is a massive story and one which 'The Devil's Water covers very much in depth.
Programme input can include;
Scientists, doctors, NGO's, in the field locations.
'The Devils's Water' is available in Audio Text and for Photography please refer to Reportage category.
The following Audio is an extract of an extremely interesting interview with a lecturer in Environmental Microbiology at one of the UKs leading universities. This lady is working not only on a safe, reliable and cost affective method of mitigating the arsenic, but also an environmentally friendly one.
A full version of 'Consuming the Arsenic' is available on request.
