<strong>WATER</strong> <strong>BOTTLES</strong><br />

ARE KILLING<br />

OUR PLANET.<br />

Water is a natural resource everything alive needs for survival, yet we<br />

have made it a market in individually packaged containers that will sit on<br />

the Earth for generations to come. Though they are convinient at times,<br />

the mass amounts of plastic being produced (and thrown away after minimal<br />

time of usage) is having a large impact on global warming, occurring right<br />

now. The production of water bottles requires oil, gas, even more water<br />

than it takes to fill it, and space in landfills. It is estimated that by<br />

2050, there will be more plastic in the ocean by weight than fish and water<br />

bottles are a main contributer. Bottled water is significantly more<br />

expensive than filtered drinking water, yet yeilds the same quality.<br />

Purchasing what is already free but in single-use containers is both<br />

impractical and extremely damaging to our environment.
