It’s time for me to hop on my virtual soap box, so to say. Plastic beverage containers are an environmental menace. Once quite rare, they have become so commonplace that millions of them are used once and then discarded every single day. The illogic of waste!
Recycling helps and the Cindy Crawford video excerpt which I would like you to watch explains that recycling is a very good thing. I have purchased a reusable water bottle much like the one in the Cindy Crawford video excerpt and encourage you to do likewise. However, the real solution is quite different and more difficult to achieve. What we ought to do is understand the role which water quality plays in the life of every living thing on earth. First, though, the video...
Since bottle recycling was not an issue just a few decades ago, we are left with the question, what happened? Did people suddenly become thirstier? No, the water quality changed. Fine products such as PUR water filters help but what we really need to do is improve the availability and purity of potable water on every continent.
The good people at StopGlobalWarming.org are correct in calling on every single person to break the bottle habit. We should do that. I have, for the most part, while confessing that Dasani is rather a tasty product. The problem of bottle recycling won’t be solved, though, until we all are happy with the quality of our tap water. As the matter stands today, millions of people die from contaminated water each year so, on balance, sour water is a low-priority.
Visit StopGlobalWarming.org today and grab your SIGG bottle. Make a statement. Be part of the solution.
Sustainable Justice For All!
