"A place for unused drugs"
This article discusses a resource Gardner, Massachusetts has put into place as a reaction to the increase of youth prescription drugs abuse and the water contamination they also cause. The mayor of Gardner has declared that in mid-May there will be a day where all residents can safely discard their unused or expired medications. This way, teens and young adults will be less likely to get their hands on them and also their water will be cleaner due to less people flushing medications down the toilet.
