    Why is tap water considered better than bottled water?

        Tap water is regulated by the EPA so there are thorough tests throughout the day and tap water companies are required to produce quality reports.
        Tap water is constantly in motion which keeps it fresh.
        Tap water is filtered and disinfected.
        Bottled water is regulated by the FDA and does not require the same tests or quality reports that you can get from tap water.
        Bottled water is not required to filter, disinfect of follow any quality standards.
        Bottled water can contain chemicals which leach into the water in time, especially if exposed to heat.
        Bacteria can enter the filter water bottle during the bottling process which can multiply by the time the bottle of water is purchased by a consumer.
        At least two out of five bottles of bottled water is just bottled tap water.

    The best solution is to filter your tap water and drink it from a Green Bottle stainless steel bottle when you are on the road.

    How does bottled water affect the environment?

    Many people think they are being "green" by recycling their plastic water bottles.

    Actually, plastic water bottles, even when disposed of in a recycling center, either end up in landfills or disposed of in an incinerator. This causes a huge problem in the environment as it literally takes thousands of years to degrade.

    By using a Green Bottle Stainless Steel Bottle, you will make a big difference in the preservation of the environment.

    How does glass bottle water waste our natural resources?

    The plastic bottle used for bottled water accounts for approximately 2.5 percent of the world's oil consumption; in fact, manufacturing the plastic bottles in the U.S. uses enough oil and energy to fuel a million cars! Not to mention all the fuel that is wasted to transport the water bottles by plane, ship and truck within the US and globally.

    We can save on our natural resources by drinking water from the tap in a stainless steel bottle and reuse it over and over again.

    Are we wasting money on bottled water?

    A Glass of tap water is almost free whereas Bottled water costs more than 2000 times the price of tap water. Many times, the bottled water you are buying is actually just bottled tap water so you're paying a lot of money for something that flows freely in your home.

    Save your money and your health by drinking tap water in a Green Bottle stainless steel glass water bottle with silicone sleeve.

    Is bottled water really more convenient to buy than just using tap water?

    Bottled water advertising touches on the convenience of the product. It's available when you need it at the nearest grocery, gas station or vending machine. The problem is people are forgetting about the almost free running water in their taps and are ignorant of the pollution that is caused from plastic bottles.

    Buying a reusable bottle and filling it from public sources is a more convenient and healthier solution.

    It's easier and cheaper for me to fill up a plastic bottle with water!

    Reusing a plastic bottle is a no-no. There are chemicals that are used to manufacture the plastic bottle that will leach in to the water over time, especially if you reuse the plastic bottle over and over again. Recycling the glass water bottle with infuser doesn't mean it will be reused. Only 20 percent of the bottles are actually recycled and the balance is sitting in landfills for the next 1000s of years. For the bottles that do get recycled, they actually create additional waste to make them reusable by adding more plastics and chemicals.
