Some filters can do that, not all. Gotta check what your filter is rated for!

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The Brita would (should) pull out various carcinogens from the water since they will stick to the filter rather than the water. But it won't do anything for bacteria, viruses, amoeba or any other protists. Which would make you acutely sick.
Britta'd. I think a bottle with and ranging from very fine at the bottom to pebbles on top might be one of those survival things that actually work. Or just boil it. Or both.
Both is the answer. One is for reducing bigger impurities the other for killing any bacteria
Just boil the water instead. Then you can have instant soup.
Bro trust an ads about thing sell on amazon
Well yeah, next time wait for the water to trickle through the filter instead of gulping from the loading compartment
Anon confused a tap water filter for a camping filter
Lol, that filter isn't gonna do shit for the bacteria that's gonna make you sick. You need a life filter or whatever they're called.
