    https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/8/2/565 – This source is from google scholar and it’s believable because drinking from bottle water isn’t healthy since it’s on a plastic bottle and it causes water pollution because of the plastic chemicals that are inside in a bottle and I believe that tap water is safer because it doesn’t cause damage to the water.

    https://www.usgs.gov/news/national-news-release/tap-water-study-detects-pfas-forever-chemicals-across-us?items_per_page=6

    This source is from a magazine and it’s credible because I’m still like unsure if everywhere in the tap water has dangerous chemicals that can last forever.

    https://amp.theguardian.com/environment/2023/aug/17/pfas-us-drinking-water-contaminated-forever-chemicals-epa

    This source is from the news report and it’s believable because it’s true that in the U.S. tap water may be contaminated because the water pollution has already spread and it has dangerous chemicals that can affect our health when we drink water from the tap water.

    I chose four articles, and an extra one just in case the article did not fit my composition. These were all found in Gale, the first two are articles and the last two are Viewpoint essays. I chose these articles because I probably read the author’s content and opinions that interest me.
