The Survival Podcast interviews The Berkey Guy

Jack Spirko interviewed our very own Jeff “The Berkey Guy” Gleason this week on The Survival Podcast (TSP). The interview covered the subject of drinking water (big surprise?) including the issue of fluoride in your drinking water and a reference to The Fluoride Deception by Christopher Bryson. We urge you to take a read of the book if you haven’t already. Chlorine, arsenic, radiation, and chromium were also touched on in the interview. Jeff had a blast doing the interview especially because The Survival Podcast community is a valued audience who supports Directive21.com and he was finally able to thank them in that podcast.

The Survival Podcast is committed to “helping you live the life you want, if times get tough, or even if they don’t.” We are happy to continue to support Jack’s efforts, especially his Member Support Brigade (MSB). If you listen to TSP but haven’t become part of the MSB, be sure to join & take advantage of  connecting with other like-minded folk. MSB members enjoy many benefits including discounts on prepper & survival products, free downloads, and tons of valuable information!

Floridians Still Dealing with Toxic Algae

Similer Toxic Algae was found in Northern California.

Apparently, clean drinking water is not as readily available as many assume. You know, we regularly receive orders and phone calls from Florida residents because their water is less than desirable. The image to the left is an example of toxic algae that was found in the water at the Iron Gate Reservoir, about 5 miles south of the Oregon-California border.

If you get a chance, please read the article posted today an attorney at Earthjustice. The original article can be found here: Nauseating Toxica Algae Outbreak a Grim Reminder.

It might surprise many Americans to know that even within our great nation clean water is not enjoyed by all, even within established cities and towns. It is very, very disappointing. It is readily assumed that all the taxes that we pay would naturally support infrastructure to secure WATER!

So, aside from the fact that a Berkey System would come in handy here, we all have a vested interest to be informed of our local water supplies and the quality of the water they produce for our consumption. I am not suggesting that you need to become a regular at town/city hall meetings, but what would it hurt to get involved?

Seriously, one of the biggest motivating factors to change comes from us: regular tax-paying citizens who won’t accept sub-par performance from elected officials and public service providers. Our political persuasions do not matter. Our views on the 2nd amendment don’t come into play when we-as communities-collaborate to ensure we have clean, readily-accessible water from our water utilities.

Please do your part. For yourself. For the Future.

Water Purification

Basics of Water Purification

We all know that water purification is the process by which unwanted chemicals, additives and other elements are removed from water. Most purification is done to make water safe for drinking or human consumption, but there are other reasons to purify water. Standards for purified water are generally set by some form of government body, but it’s not possible to tell if water is up to those standards just by looking at it. Some chemicals and additives are invisible to the naked eye.

Using Effective Water Purification Products

This is where Directive 21 and the Berkey filtration system come in. While other purification systems offer audacious claims, Berkey delivers results. As an official dealer of the Berkey water purification product line for six years, Directive 21 knows what’s important.

Buying the Berkey Water Purification System

If you’ve heard nothing but good things about the Berkey water purification system, you’re not alone. This system is renowned for its ability to keep water in the filtration system for longer than other comparable set-ups. It has micro-porous filtration that ensures that all invasive elements are removed from the water, too, and it comes in a variety of implementations that can help in an array of different potential applications. But where on earth do you buy one?

What is Directive 21?

It may seem odd, but Directive 21 is the website where you can purchase the Berkey water purification system. Online at http://www.directive21.com, Directive 21 is named from a computer game the Berkey founders used to play and the age the founders were when they started up the company. What began as a young dream has become one of the most remarkable success stories in the world of water filtration.

Comparing Water Purification Systems

I’m not telling you something you don’t already know when I say that there are an awful lot of water purification products on the market. Water purification systems are, it seems, a dime a dozen. Figuring out which one works and which one is blowing smoke is another matter altogether. Sometimes it pays to compare, though, and nobody stacks up better in comparison to other systems than Berkey.

Buy Berkey: The Best in Water Purification Systems

Berkey knows water purification because it knows what it really takes to purify water. With a comprehensive process that’s based on micro-porous filtration and state of the art technology, Berkey has the knack for getting harmful additives, chemicals and junk out of your water so that you have a pure glass of nothing but the good stuff. While other water purification systems make unnecessary promises, Berkey’s proven system delivers the goods in the form of pure water every single time.
