Don’t buy bottled water, take it from home in a reusable container

That one litre of bottled water probably took about three times as much water to produce and get to your hand. There is the water involved in making the container and not to mention the oil-based ingredients too. Then there’s the transportation costs and most likely the shop refidgeration costs as well. Isn’t it easier to just grab a bottle of water before you leave home? Sure, it’s not always practical, however, for thos times that you can do it, why not do it. Add the fact that at least 25% of the bottles aren’t recycled and there is the added cost to the environment of all these bottled clogging up waterways and ending up floating around the oceans.
