The Story of Bottled Water

The story of bottled water is a very interesting short film, which makes you really think and put into perspective the wastage of bottled water. More often then not, city tap water is cleaner then purchased bottled water, which is explained in the video. In a study of the U.S, consumers preferred the taste of tap water, to that of bottled water, and "Bottled water costs almost 2000 times more then normal tap water." "People in the U.S buy 500 Million bottles of water every week," this just makes you think of how many plastic bottles are being thrown out each year. There is a extremely large opportunity for people to set up a system to help minimise the wastage of bottled water, and create a sustainable future for the product.
