My boss' neighbor recently began a home improvement project that puts the entire neighborhood at risk. For those of you who are not familiar with my story, I am a nanny to three boys, so my boss' neighborhood is very much my business. I spend more time there than I spend in my own neighborhood. The next door neighbor recently began painting the exterior of his house. This should be great news for the other homeowners on the block, as the paint was old and cracked, and everyone is worried about property values these days. The problem is, his painting project could potentially leave the neighbor kids brain damaged. The paint is full of lead.

Contamination of the Spokane River is an important problem, which I believe, needs to be taken care of. It can hurt human beings and it limits recreational use of the River. I personally blame Bunker Hill Mining Co.
