Why do most people bother drinking Bottle Water.  Our economy is going through tough times, yet people continue to pay more than a $ 1.00 for Bottle Water.

This only makes us more dependent  on foreign oil. Americans complaint that the cost of fuel has gone to close to $ 4.00 dollars a gallon  in some states, but are willing to pay more than $ 4.00  dollars for bottle water when compare to a gallon of  Gas, not to mention adding  pollution by disposing of plastic bottles just about anywhere.

This makes no sense, and nobody should have to pay more for water than gas. Also more of the bottle water, is just filtered water. This water may have a better taste than tap water, but is no safer. Many experts agree on the taste of bottle water, but many times this water contains more impurities, and bacteria than tap water.

Bottle water sometimes sits for weeks, and months at a time in warehouses before being deliver to your local Supermarket. Tap water on the other hand is continuously being monitored by different government agencies to provide us with safe drinking water. Just run your tap water for a couple of seconds before drinking it, and your good to go.

You help save the Earth, by eliminating plastic waste disposal, and become more Eco Friendly.
