Our vision is contamination free, healthy water for all. Mainstream knowledge and awareness starts with science. Is the Flint incident sending a warning?
The mission of Save the Water™ is to conduct water research to identify and remove harmful contaminants in water, and to raise public awareness about water contamination and its health impact. Today there are so many chemicals used in our day to day lives, which weren’t even invented 10-15 years ago. There is no regulatory limit on how much of these new chemicals can be in our water and some of th

🚰 Ever wonder where your sink water goes?
When you pour grease, chemicals, or medications down the drain, they don’t just “disappear”—they can end up in rivers, lakes, and even drinking water. 🌊
What you pour down your drain matters more than you think.

💬 Comment: What’s something you didn’t know shouldn’t go down the drain?
🌿 Did you know? In early May 2026, the Max Road Fire burned more than 11,000 acres of the Everglades, reminding us how vulnerable this extraordinary ecosystem is.
The Everglades do more than support incredible wildlife—they help provide clean drinking water for millions of Floridians. Protecting them means protecting our future.
Through The Everglades Clean Drinking Water Initiative powered by Save the Water™, we’re working to raise awareness, educate communities, and inspire action to safeguard one of the world’s most precious ecosystems.

🌊 What happens when our water turns toxic?
Harmful algal blooms, nutrient pollution, and invasive species are threatening our lakes, rivers, and ecosystems—but there’s hope.
🎙️ In our latest Save the Water™ Podcast episode, we sit down with Dr. Mark Heilman, Vice President of SEPRO’s Water Quality Division and an aquatic ecologist with over 25 years of experience. Together, we explore the growing challenges facing our waterways, the science behind protecting aquatic ecosystems, and how innovative technologies like AI are transforming water quality monitoring.
💧 Healthy water means healthy communities. By understanding the issues, we can all play a role in protecting this vital resource.

☘ What if one of nature’s smallest plants could help solve one of our biggest water challenges?
Duckweed is emerging as a powerful, low-cost solution for treating domestic wastewater. Through a process called phytoremediation, this fast-growing aquatic plant naturally absorbs excess nutrients and contaminants from water, helping improve water quality without the need for energy-intensive treatment systems.
💧 Unlike many conventional treatment methods, duckweed is sustainable, affordable, and environmentally friendly. It not only helps clean wastewater but can also reduce nutrient pollution that harms rivers, lakes, and wetlands. At Save The Water™, we believe innovative solutions can come from nature itself. By exploring
approaches like duckweed phytoremediation, we can help create cleaner water and healthier ecosystems for future generations.

🌊 Celebrate World Ocean Day!
Over the past few days, we’ve explored how all waterways are connected, how pollution travels through these systems, and why biodiversity depends on clean, healthy water.
🌎These challenges may seem global, but meaningful change starts locally.
Through Save The Water™’s Everglades Initiative, we’re helping protect one of the world’s most important wetland ecosystems through water quality research, contaminant monitoring, and environmental education. The Everglades support countless species, help filter water naturally, and connect directly to Florida’s coastal and marine environments.
💧 By protecting water today, we’re helping create healthier ecosystems and stronger
communities for future generations.

🌎 Happy World Environment Day!
Over the past few days, we’ve explored some of the most important environmental signals around us: the growing impacts of climate change on water resources, the power of nature-based solutions, and the vital connection between clean water and healthy ecosystems.
These signals remind us that our environment is interconnected—and that local action can create lasting change.
💧 At Save The Water™, we’re answering these signals through research, education, and innovative water treatment technologies. Through our Everglades Initiative, we’re helping protect one of the world’s most unique ecosystems by studying water quality, identifying harmful
contaminants, and supporting efforts to preserve the wetlands that sustain countless species and communities.
The future of our environment depends on the actions we take today. Together, we can help protect our waters, strengthen ecosystems, and create a healthier future for all.

🌿 2 Days Until World Environment Day
Sometimes the best solutions come from nature itself.
From wetlands that filter pollutants to plants like duckweed that help clean wastewater,
nature-based solutions can play a powerful role in protecting our water resources.
At Save The Water™ , we support innovative approaches that help create cleaner water and healthier communities.
💧 Working with nature means working toward a more sustainable future.

Florida’s iconic freshwater springs are under pressure. New research from UF/IFAS shows repeated flooding is reversing spring flow, damaging ecosystems, and accelerating algae growth. Scientists say what’s happening in Florida could become more common nationwide as extreme rainfall increases. 🌧️🌿
