Arizona Water Resource Vol. 16 No. 5 (May-June 2008)

Includes insert: "The Ecological Implications of Verde River Flows" / Does it take a Crypto Creature to catch public attention and raise concerns about critical water issues citizens should know and care about? The Water Services Department of Bryan Texas found the approach effective in educating citizens about the threat of cryptosporidium in drinking water. Whatever else might be said of the strategy of relying heavily on the skills of a cartoonist, the message came readily across that the crypotosporidium pathogen is mean, nasty and dangerous, a pest best shunned.

Another cautionary water message that recently caught public attention was that drinking water supplies throughout the country contain pharmaceuticals.
