This issue I feel is going to be an indicator towards the success our fledging into the next era, which should be a long one comparatively, much as how an adult bird's life is verus its time in the nest.
This crucial milestone will be like that critical moment then the boosters separate from the lunar capsule upon the final stages of launch, and I truly believe that it will have strong implications towards our being mature enough--prepared enough to handle a future with HoD air/space hybrid propulsion systems and space faring horizons. The only other option would be some sort of global warfare or other event complete enough to destroy virtually every home and system using PVC pipes for water plumbing in order to have the same effect, because karma has spoken and the phthalates need to go, or we risk being trans, permanently!
If it works don't fix it, right? Robotic systems capable of applying a thin, inert inner lining barrier to existing PVC water pipes would be a similar achievement...it's going to take alot of cooperation and development across several cutting edge fields with emergent technology, and the numbers and circumstances involved are much like those of the Apollo era, except in a different way.
The task is very daunting, with countless miles of PVC pipes to be retrofitted, just like the countless miles we had to cover to the moon. Advanced meta-materials and manufacturing techniques will need to researched and developed that will need to be tested for the long term in a short amount of time as well, in a similar manner that the Apollo 13 air cleaner had to be made during and impossible circumstance. Everything will need to be cost-effective and able to withstand the test of time and be easy to retrofit in a timely manner, but above all will need to be healthy and not poison the drinking water like PVC does, and we might could even go a step further and include substances in the material which release minute amounts of healthy compounds, such as those which released needed minerals like iron, zinc, molybdenum, etc...or also contain compounds which have natural hygienic ionic properties such as silver and gold, which would help keep water in the pipes clean and free of pathogens, mold, etc.
I would also like to reference a video which I watched about a Japanese researcher by the name of Masaru Emoto, who's profound research into H2O opened windows into and shed light upon a world of water which we never had known, nor may never at any level...which surely indicates that our favorite substance is as deep as the oceans themselves, with just as vast amounts of information unkown about its true properties, like atomic and subatomic functions with relation to our biology and the biosphere in general, especially with regard to quantum processes. I recommend watching his documentaries, they are truly extraordinary and deserve a special place in the halls of science, if one may call his research that...in my opinion, his work should be considered less science and more in line with the church, amen. Perhaps in a new one-world government, we may bind the two as we bind the future of water to the poisonous past of PVC, and remember that we may never have truly known the light without the dark, much as how a person has never truly tasted water but upon the threshold of death from thirst...just as we thirst now for change...in our pockets...and from our chains.
At any rate, there could be frontiers of water works beyond our wildest dreams...here is a link to that doc:
