When going to a grocery store, what is the most common grocery item that can be found within any retail store on the can aisle? Many may thing canned vegetables or canned preprocessed meat, but in reality the most common can item out there is the beloved Campbells soup brand. These soups may be amazing and convenient at times, but is it worth supporting a brand that has been found to exceed the legal limit of chemical or waste dumping into U.S. water systems? It was found out that the organization was found to be breaking the Clean Waters Act that was set into place to help not only industries, but also help preserve the environment that could be affected by these harmful chemicals. The article states that Campbell broke this law so many times that it became a primary, “point source” (Saleen) that had caused Lake Erie to become populated with toxic bacteria and algae. However, the company hasn’t taken any actions to figure out the solution to the issue, but they have released statements that they are willing to fix the problem. Although they stated that they need to figure out the cost first before making any further progress. Should this be allowed or should there be stricter penalties in place for these kinds of situations?
