USA Water Filter Blog

Dramatists call this one of the biggest scams in social and economic history, and I have a hard time disagreeing: Bottled water.

It seems to me that people only continue to consume bottled water because a) it has become ingrained in American culture and b) the majority of Americans are too ignorant to think about it. But consider this:

• The price of bottled water is 10,000 times the price of tap water.
• 40 percent of bottled water comes from the same tap sources to which we all have access.
• Bottled water producers are not required to test for e. coli, disclose the source of their water or produce quality reports.
• Enough oil is used in the production of bottled water each year to fuel 1 million cars for a year (17 million barrels of oil, to be precise).
• It takes three times the amount of water that is actually in a bottle to produce it.
• 1.1 billion people in the world today do not have access to safe drinking water.
