to overcome the disastrous effects
of phosphates is to find an alternate. However, an acceptable substitute
for phosphates has not yet been found. Washing only with synthetic

detergents are not precipitated by Calcium of Magnesium ions. This
would reduce the risk contaminating our lakes and rivers.
