Despite the recommendation of public health experts, voters in Portland, Ore., defeated a measure on Tuesday, May 21 to add fluoride to the water supply by a 60-to-40 percent margin. The result marks the fourth time since 1956 that Portland has rejected fluoridation efforts, and means the city will continue to be the largest metropolitan area in the country without fluoridated water or plans to add it.
This is quite a small article but a BIG defeat. Way to go Portland! You are a shining example to cities, towns and water districts across the nation. We never use any form of tap water for our plants, always filtered! Soon hopefully there will be little or no fluoridation in our water everywhere across the world.
Stay Happy! Stay Healthy!
