Today is World Water Day and for many this is a chance to challenge societies dependence on bottled water. Providing usually lower quality and more expensive water by bottle has been an ongoing campaign by the large beverage companies over the past few years. However, now it looks like the public are catching on. Bottled water sales have started to drop and sales for those guys who make reusable bottles are going up, but let's keep the trend going 'take back the tap'.
The guys and gals over at 'Story of Stuff' have a great new film 'The Story of Bottled Water storyofstuff.org/bottledwater/' which shows just how damaging this manufactured demand has and continues to be on the planet. The US alone consumes half a billion plastic bottled a week, most of which end up in land fill or circulating in the north pacific, that's just crazy. So get yourself a reusable bottle (BPA free if I were you), say no to the big corps telling you tap water's no good, and take back the tap.
