As usual you are a complete idiot. And you listen to the bullshit claims of
advertising that tout not bottled water, buuuuuuuut... filtered water. What you
and a lot of other bottled water opponents don't realize is the campaign
against bottled water was started some years ago by the companies that own
Brita, Pur and other water filtration systems.
All those bs ads about how the waters are filtered tap water and all the other
claims against them can easily be debunked. First, some, not all waters are
filtered tap water, such as Dasani and Aquafina. They clearly state on the
bottles that this is the source. Its not like the companies are trying to hide
the fact. I drink a brand called Springtime which comes from the Crystalline
Piedmont Rock Aquifer from an artesian well in Appling Georgia - they still
filter it to make sure its up to their standards.
And the companies that squall so loudly about others who market filtered tap
water? What do they want yo you to do? They want you to use Brita, Pur, Zero
and other brands of filter pitchers or tap filters. And what do you get if you
use these filtration systems? Filtered tap water. As you love to say, go figger.
The idea also that the bottles empty water bottles are gonna pile up till they
take over the earth is ignoring the fact that they are RECYCLABLE and can be
reused or turned into something else. I recycle mine.
The city water here in Newberry is so full o chlorine and the Pur and Britas
just don't do the job well enough for me to drink and cook with what I get from
the tap. Besides, I went to high school with a guy who went to work at the
local water treatment plant and he started drinking bottled water immediately
after he started working there. He would never say way beyond "If you saw what
we put in the water to purify it..." and then he'd shake his head.
And if all the companies and environmental messages that come out in these ads
are sooooooo concerned with carbon footprinting and how much oil is being used
to make the bottles and the idea the bottles stay around forever are telling
the truth and they are sooooooo concerned about Mother Earth why aren't they
taking the soft drink manufacturers, the bottled juice makers and the milk
producers for doing the same damn thing? I guarantee you there are far more
plastic bottles being made to enclose Pepsi, Coke, Dr. Pepper, Sprite and on
and on, not to mention the RC Colas you are drinking everyday Richey, then
those that are made for the bottled water trade.
So yeah, I am gonna go have me a pint right now and enjoy it immensely.

According to what I've read, it's mostly tap water.
So, what do you do
with the empty bottles? Apparently it takes 1000 years to
break down the
plastic. Go figure.
