Abel
What is the best evaluation of the reasoning in this
passage?
Enticing people to drink recycled water, however,
requires getting past what experts call the "yuck" factor.
Efforts in the 1990s to develop water reuse in San Diego
and Los Angeles were beaten back by activists who
denounced what they called, devastatingly, "toilet to tap."
Los Angeles built a $55 million purification plant in the
1990s, but never used it to produce drinking water; the
water goes to irrigation instead.
But with the special purification plant, which has been
operating since 2008, Orange County swung people to
the idea of drinking recycled water. The county does not
run its purified water directly into drinking water
treatment plants; instead, it sends the water
underground to replenish the area's aquifers and to be
diluted by the natural water supply. This environmental
buffer seems to provide an emotional buffer for
consumers as well.
