The solution is to legislate bottled water companies out of existence, and keep our public water systems in good shape.
But that's not what anyone working for a company founded on laying dubious legal claims to water that should be public, and selling it for a profit, wants to hear.
- Tsubasachan 8y agoThe tap water in my country is one of the best in the world and scientifically proven to be better than mineral water. I still buy Evian.
- nnain 8y agoAnd proud of it? That's awkward. Why would you do that!
- ksec 8y agoThe tap water at closest source were scientifically tested to be decent , but the pipes that carries it, and the pipes that is inside my building were not. Mostly with added lead and heavy metal. I wish I didn't knew any of these. I wish I could have simply continue to drink water like I once did. But now I get to spend money buying drinking water or filters. Fear Sells. What a world we live in.
- ksec 8y agoWhy not legislate all plastics used with consumables should be self degrade-able and a life time of no more than 4 years from DOP?
- dev_north_east 8y agoThe water in my country is fantastic. That being said we have to buy all bottled (in plastic) water for my Mother for the past ten years or so. Why? She had many cancers over the years and it was dcotor's advice to avoid tapwater due to the possibility of pipes introducing germs etc which her immune system could not handle.
- Kluny 8y agoWhy not boil tapwater? In most places the regulations and safety standards for public tap water are stricter than the ones for bottled water.
