River water is open to contamination from animals. In a properly constructed well, water seeps through the soil, effectively filtering the water and blocking it from contamination.
I'm not entirely sure, I've never heard of such a question. But I would think river water, because I've heard that rust or coin material have a serious effect on water witch may cause sudden stroke or death sometimes even commas after 2-4 days after drinking well water. So basicicly yes, I prefer river water would be much more safer to drink than well water. Hope I've helped.
The Amazon River in South America carries more water than any other river in the world. It has the largest drainage basin and accounts for approximately one-fifth of the world's total river flow.
River water is a mixture, consisting of various elements and compounds dissolved or suspended in water. It may contain minerals, organic matter, and microorganisms, making it a complex mixture of substances.
Yes, you can. It is much safer than drinking from stand-still pools or puddles. It is cleaner and will not cause dysentery. Collecting rain water in cisterns is the major water source in many areas away from flowing rivers.
A mature river erodes its channel wider rather than deeper. The gradient of a mature river is less steep than young rivers, and the water flows more smoothly. Examples of mature rivers are the Thames, Mississippi, and Ohio rivers.
The beer was safer to drink, because plain water was often contaminated with bacteria and other impurities.

There is one thing you can be sure of - every drop of water you drink contains dinosaur pee. In other words all water is OLD water.
No. If you have a good knowledge of the source of water-flow, then a river may be an acceptable source of clean water. River water is unsafe for many reasons. Often river water will sit in pools, or come from may types of sewage run-off. The sources of water are often contaminated. River water is also contaminated with other bacteria as well as animal excrement. It is recommended to filter, then boil river water before drinking. Running water in general should be safer than standing water, but certain elements can also taint this water.

It is probably safer than drinking water drank by a human the dog has fewer diseases that can be caught by humans then humans do.
Tap water hasn't always been available. I imagine beer may have been safer to drink than water
In the cities (at least) the drinking water available was of poor quality and probably polluted. It was therefore safer to drink ale, whose water had been boiled to brew the beer, than to drink from the communal well often situated near a midden.
They drank beer as this was far safer than drinking water which at that time was dirty and untreated (it was full of harmful bacteria)
Tap water generally contains metals such as copper and lead from the piping it goes through to get to your faucet, and the idea behind bottled water is that it does not contain these metals. Bottled water is supposed to be pure, lacking any metal impurities, but many companies do not meet these standards. Find a major brand that fits your price range and stick with it. Bottled water is not really any safer to drink than tap water is. The EPA sets standards for all tap water, which makes it completely safe to drink, although it does have chemicals that have treated it. Yes. Because of no chloride in and the multiple filtering of bottled water it is much safer than tap water.
its not. river forest is way safer than chicago and it is a friendly comunity
In the US , not necessarily, as some bottled waters are just from a tap somewhere anyway. In a foreign country, probably a good idea , if the bottled water is a known brand.
