choices : food health : ARE YOU FOR OR AGAINST THE SALE OF BOTTLED WATER? [+] serious ballot by Mr_Spleen ACTIVE Wed Aug 20, 08 - Mon May 16, 11 It's estimated that Americans purchase around 30 Billion bottles of water every year, and that over 80% of those bottles wind up in landfills, also that it took around 20 million barrels of oil just to produce those bottles. About a quarter of those bottles will contain the same water that comes out of your tap, which means you're not any better off drinking bottled water as oppose to tap water, in fact you're worse off. A good percentage of bottled water brands contain higher levels of contaminants that tap water does, and these higher amounts consumed over an extended period of time can cause many serious health complications. Most tap water contains fluoride ions, but some bottled water brands don't, increasing the risk of tooth decay. Against For Reduce the price-- it's just water!
