Aotearoa-NewZealand: Babies at risk due to nitrate-contaminated drinking water in Ashburton District.
Greenpeace Aotearoa says that it is deeply concerned about the safety of drinking water in the Ashburton District after close to one in five bore water samples tested for nitrate at the beginning of April exceeded levels linked with blue baby syndrome.
The organisation says that this is indicative of a failure by Environment Canterbury to protect drinking water from contamination.
