"Madam President, thank you very much for an excellent report on an important subject. I would like to take up the question of chemicals and other contaminants in water. In my home city of Stockholm, warnings were issued a while ago against cleaning floors using water because the cleaning water that people then end up with in their buckets contains so many hazardous chemicals that when the water is poured down the toilet, or wherever people pour it, the treatment plants are quite simply not able to deal with the water in an adequate manner. It becomes too toxic.
This means that, all around us, in the dust and everywhere, there are many dangerous chemicals, and we have to take responsibility for these chemicals, for removing these products so that we will be able to have clean water in the future.
Of course, we can demand better water treatment, and that is something we definitely need to do as well, but the most important thing to do – and this is also stated in this report – is to deal with the pollution at source, i.e. eliminate dangerous chemicals and, for example, silver in clothes, which washes out and ends up in our water instead."@en1
