SUSTAINABILITY FOR ALL – WHERE TO START?

Bottled Water.  Bad News.  Don’t buy.

  1. Bottled water promotes privatization of water
  2. 1.5 billion gallons of oil a year are used to make plastic water bottles.
    Enough to run 100,000 cars in that same time
  3. Only ten percent of plastic bottles are recycled
  4. 40 percent of bottled water is municipal tap water
  5. Two gallons are wasted for every gallon that goes into the bottle
  6. Bottled water is not safer than tap water
