En Espanol -- Water Sayings - 30 second Radio
Hablamos acerca del agua continuamente. Decimos que se nos hace la boca agua. Sabemos que la sangre es más espesa que el agua, y que no se puede mezclar aceite y agua. Hasta estamos hechos de agua.
¿Pero sabe de donde viene su agua potable o lo que hay dentro de ella? Su proveedor de agua pronto le enviará un nuevo y breve informe sobre su agua potable. Esté atento. Y cuando lo reciba, lealo.
Enterese más llamando a su proveedor de agua o en el web al: www.epa.gov/safewater.
