Arizona Is Hiding Something Dangerous Nobody Talks About...

The largest nuclear power plant in the United States has no natural water source. It sits in the middle of the Sonoran Desert, 45 miles from Phoenix, and cools its three reactors using 20 billion gallons of treated municipal sewage every year. It is the only nuclear plant in the world not located next to a body of water. The water going in is the water that came out of Phoenix's drains. In April 1871, approximately 150 men attacked a sleeping Apache camp near Tucson and killed between 100 and 144 people — nearly all women, children, and elderly. President Grant called it a massacre. 104 men were tried. The jury deliberated for 19 minutes and acquitted all of them. These are 30 wild facts about Arizona. We count down to Fact 1. Before Phoenix was Phoenix, a civilisation called the Hohokam built more than 1,000 miles of irrigation canals across this same desert and sustained up to 80,000 people for 700 years. Around 1450 CE, their system failed — drought, salt, time. Phoenix was built on their infrastructure. The same water problem is still here. We are Unreal Earth.
