I have friends and family members, who refuse to drink from the tap. I used to use a Brita. . . have never been much of a fan of buying bottled water, but honestly, even after I explain how much waste product bottled water creates (it usually take 1.5 liters of water to create a 1 liter bottle) and that there are not near the quality restrictions on it that there are on tap water systems (more bacteria PPM in some bottled waters than in municipal water), people continue to buy bottled water. Seriously, you recycle paper at work because it’s environmentally friendly. Yet, you can’t take the time to fill up a reusable water bottle instead of grabbing one out of a Costco pack. On top of the waste, don’t you pay more for bottled water than you do for gas? I was happy to find
this page this morning because it’s just another resource to show that you don’t need bottled water, and in fact, it is likely worse for you than tap. Please, stop buying bottled water. If you need any more of a push, just trust me that the French invented bottled water because they knew Americans would be stupid enough to buy it. Luckily, I’m not. Are you?
