What are the problems derived from drinking bottled water?

Mention two problems at least.


Bottled water is destructive to the environment. It is a fact that 67 million
water bottles are thrown away each day.
Another problem with bottled water is the incredible amount of fuel
needed to transport these heavy loads of plastic (and sometimes glass)
bottles to your local supermarket, home or office.
What is the difference between bottled water and drinking water?
You've probably heard a lot about bottled water. That it's healthier for you
than tap water, that it can replace your vitamins, that it's really only tap
water and how environmentally unfriendly it is.

Describe the process involved in manufacturing a plastic bottle.


Pharmacy in a Bottle -- As mentioned above, about 40 percent of bottled
water is tap water. This means you are not only exposed to dangerous
BPA from the bottle, you may also be exposed to a variety of water
contaminants such as fluoride, chlorine, arsenic, aluminum, disinfection
byproducts and prescription drugs.
What happens with the plastic bottles after we throw them away?
That's a staggering amount of waste considering only 10 percent of these
water bottles are ever recycled. Despite the good reputation recycling
has, this practice is not always best for the ecosystem as it is labor-
intensive, costly and burns natural resources. Also, just because you are
throwing your used water bottles into the recycling bin, it does not
necessarily mean they are able to be recycled.

What solutions can be implemented to solve this problem?


Obviamente el mejor recipiente es el vidrio porque cuando usted elige el
plstico usted est potencialmente expuesto a los siguientes productos
qumicos.
Is this problem common in your community?

Yes, Were not buying


into their manufactured demand anymore. Well choose our own
demands, thank you
very much, and were demanding clean safe water for all.
What does the community do to deal with it?
In fact we are doing nothing, because we have not consented to the
problem and continue to consume bottled water

Will you drink bottled water again? Why, why not?

I'm just one reason Bottled water epitomises the destructive, extravagant
and wasteful nature of our modern society. Bottled water has therefore
developed into a hate figure of the environmental movement but why is it
so bad for you and the environment

What will you do in the future to reduce the number of plastic


bottles used inthe world?
There's a simple alternative to bottled water: buy a stainless steel
thermos, and use it. Don't like the way your local tap water tastes?
Inexpensive carbon filters will turn most tap water sparkling fresh at a
fraction of bottled water's cost.

Conserve water wherever possible, and stay on top of local water issues.
