It’s not quite to the level of geopolitic but selling bottled water is entirely unnecessary in majority of the US. It’s extremely bad for the environment, both for the plastic but of course the transport. When it’s often the same damn thing you get in your sink.
But no idea what’s specifically bad about this brand in particular.
- tayo42 4y agoI've yet to visit a country that didn't sell bottled water though. That doesn't seem US specific
- llampx 4y agoMany other countries have tap water that is not potable.
- atlasunshrugged 4y agoAs do some places in the U.S. and many people do fear that their water while technically potable, is full of unhealthy materials like lead. Even for me in a relatively new building, I have no idea about the materials of the lines built into it or the water main in my city. I use a Brita or straight from the tap personally but I can't say I blame people who are concerned (in the U.S.) where infrastructure is quite old and there doesn't seem to be much concern by officials even in the most dire of cases like Flint to fix things.
