The
volume potential for re-useable beverage
bottles is increasing at a phenomenal rate!
You must know that the bottled water industry is
under heavy fire. They have finally admitted
that the majority of bottled water is nothing
more than filtered tap water. Bottled water
wastes fossil fuels and water in production and
transport, and when the water is drunk the
bottles become a major source of waste. It takes
more than 47 million gallons of oil to produce
plastic water bottles for Americans every year.
Eliminating those bottles would be like taking
100,000 cars off the road and 1 billion pounds
of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. Each
one of those bottles required nearly five times
its volume in water to manufacture the plastic
and may have caused the release of nickel,
ethylene oxide, and benzene. Then, rather than
being recycled, 86 percent of them are thrown
away. Breaking down these plastics can take
thousands of years, while their components seep
into our water supplies.
