What the Eyes Don’t See is based upon research of contaminated water in a community. Personally, I think that it is very much related to the Erin Brockovich story. Dr. Hanna-Attisha’s research came from the reports of her patients. Over time, she examined the lead levels of her patients which then lead to the theory of Flint’s water being contaminated. She also observed the levels of things that accessed water such as plants. Plants died and kids obtained skin conditions.
In response to how Dr. Hanna-Attisha’s research process went, I did notice that research takes up a lot of time and observation in order to receive the best results for the solution to the problem. For her research, she also came in touch with a lot of people in order to ensure that the problem is from a certain source: the water. When researching, it was all in the matter of finding a solution that will be helpful for everyone that was taking in the contaminated water.
Haha! Yes–research does tend to take a lot of time!
