Seeing that the LifeStraw pitcher is made of plastic, I wonder whether the amount of filtered chemicals is greater than the ones introduced by the plastic in the pitcher itself.
Civilization is built on plastics all the way down.
- jutrewag 3y agoIt depends. If you buy fresh fruits and vegetables and meat, eggs, milk from a local farm and use only glass/copper/stainless steel for all your cooking and drinking needs you can do pretty well at an individual level. Having water from your own well helps too but that may not be available to everyone.
