Filtered water & plastic bottles

Posted by admin on May 17, 2009

Yes, it’d appear I keep focusing on water tips this week but I can’t help it.

I continually see so much waste, people buying bottled water, people throwing away those bottles in the trash rather than recycling them or just tossing them on the ground after an event or when they’re at the park.

Here’s simple solution. It’s cost effective (will save you anywhere from $500-1000 a year!) and it’s environmentally friendly.

Use a water filter on your home faucet to filter water. You can get a filter that easily attaches to your faucet for under $40 (ok so it’s $39.99) and be able to filter 24,0000 eight ounce glasses of water! That’s about 3 cents per gallon and no plastic bottles are wasted!

You want to take your water with you so you think you have to use plastic bottles…
WRONG!
Use stainless steel reusable bottles!
Saves carbon, saves waste from the plastic you’d previously use. Plus, it stays colder longer in the stainless steel than the plastic (least it seems like it does to me, if anyone asks for scientific clarification on that lol).

Use both these items and you save yourself $500-1000 a year plus you save the earth!

You can purchase them together here and get on the road to saving money and helping the environment.
