Political Factoid
The Des Moines Register
has reported that Iowa*
farmers contribute to the
Gulf of Mexico dead zone
. . . by sending excess
nitrogen and phosphorus
runoff via Iowa waterways
and the Mississippi River,
. . . and contaminating
the water supplies of
cities along the way.

Similar situations undoubtedly exist in many
other states also.
