for the most part tap water is not something that you should worry about. HOWEVER, some studies suggest that the high cancer rates of developed countries are tied to chlorine being used to purify the water. the chlorine is used for the destruction of microscopic parasites, bacteriums, viruses, and other organic materials that can kill humans. when chlorine kills said creatures it leaves trace amounts of waste that is carcinogenic
