If they really are going for it & its not greenwash, thats great, proof would be brilliant.
Severn Trent on the other hand use flouride in many areas. including nottingham. There was a scientific consensus a moderate amount of flouride addition to water is necessary as it does prevent decay & our teeth in their natural state need it. But the safety of application via water supply has increasingly been challenged recently with scientific data.
In the United Kingdom the Green Party& many protest groups refer to fluoride as a poison, claiming that water fluoridation violates Article 35 of the European Charter of Fundamental Rights, is banned by the UK poisons act of 1972, violates Articles 3 and 8 of the Human Rights Act and raises issues under the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.[8]
* There are other ways of delivering fluoride besides the water supply;
* Fluoride does not need to be swallowed to prevent tooth decay;
* Tooth decay has dropped at the same rate in countries with, and without, water fluoridation;
* People are now receiving fluoride from many other sources besides the water supply;
* Studies indicate fluoride’s potential to cause a wide range of adverse, systemic effects;
* Since fluoridation affects so many people, “one might accept a lower level of proof before taking preventive actions.”[11]
