Going Green With Bottled Water
Americans love their bottled water. A typical family spends more than $800 a year on the plastic bottles, but you don’t have to. There is a better way to enjoy water and go green at the same time.
Bottled water is the second most popular drink behind soda. It’s something we all enjoy and it’s a multi-billion dollar industry, but the used bottles are rapidly taking up landfill space, creating pollution that’s unnecessary.
An easy way to save money and save energy is to fill up a reusable container instead of using plastic bottles. That will help save the hundreds of millions of dollars used on taxpayer money to clean up the side of the road from litter.
40% of all bottled water is actually just recycled tap water. Instead of doing that, you can get a water filtration system. That will save you some money and give you better tasting water.
Obviously, if you do have to use bottled water, go ahead and recycle it when you’re done. That way it keeps it out of the landfill and helps you go green and save green.
Bottled water sales have skyrocketed since 1997, going from 4 billion units to more than 35 billion.
