Sweet yields can bring sour consequences. That’s a lesson I learned once again, after recommending high yielding CenturyLink Inc (NYSE: CTL) a couple of months ago.

In fact, most of us still do, unless you live in particularly parched areas of the US Southwest and California. As our population has grown, however, so have the stresses and strains on America’s water supplies. Even in areas of heavy rainfall, the quality of drinking water from reservoirs, aquifers, rivers and other sources is increasingly threatened by air, water and waste pollution.
