Stop Drinking Water

I don’t mean to really stop drinking water but to stop drinking it out of plastic bottles! I was blown away after I googled how many water bottles we use on average. I found ranges from 167 to 212 per person per year.  Or 50 million bottles per year for the whole country.

Why are people buying bottled water?

  • Bottled water is convenient to carry and drink on the go

  • Prefer the taste of bottled water

  • Don’t like the taste of tap water due to chlorine and other content

  • Concerns about the quality of tap water

  • Healthier than carbonated soft drinks and other beverages that consumers were drinking before

  • The availability of different flavors and types of flavored water

Plastic is a valuable resource in many ways, but plastic pollution is an unnecessary and unsustainable waste of that resource. Over the last ten years we have produced more plastic than during the whole of the last century.

Choose the Sustainable Option and go buy a reusable water bottle!
