Poisoned Bottles

Water For Free
Does Evian know?
Mineral water may be good for you but the bottles will kill us.
Turn the world state we use 15 million bottles a day every day in the UK http://www.turntheworld.com/recycler/plastic.htm
Which is backed up by the independent which states that Britons use 275,000 tons of plastic bottles each year - 15 million a day http://news.independent.co.uk/environment/article621200.ece
I mean come on - its way too much . So I’ve- got rid of the milk, and I’m off the shampoo now its time for drinks. Soft drinks in plastic containers - well that’s easy. I mean basically its diabetes in a bottle, corpulence in a cup and I should hope that none of you would even consider partaking in such tooth rotting badness.
Trendy water - the clubbers aid, the sign of a sportsman the bottle of mineral water - that’s a different thing all together.
Thank heavens for the Independents article on tap water - here is a small quote
“ More than two billion litres of bottled water fly off shop shelves every year and sales are growing at nearly 9 per cent a year - one of the highest growth areas in retail. At an average of 95p per litre, it costs as much as petrol, while the average cost of tap water in the UK is £1 per 1,0000 litres”

Free water and it doesnt come with antimony. Always a good sign.
Research keeps on questioning the safety of plastic bottles - the Daily Mail had this to say on the subject "The tests found traces of antimony, a chemical used in the making of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, used by most mineral-water sellers. Small doses of antimony can make you feel ill and depressed. Larger quantities can cause violent vomiting and even death. The study stressed that amounts of antimony were well below official recommended levels. But it also discovered that the levels almost doubled when the bottles were stored for three months."

So from now on I will be drinking tap water.
To help me do this I have bought a Siggs stainless steel Swedish trekkers bottle- the bottle is steel not the trekker. Just think a reusable bottle that will last me for years.
Try these guys for a wide range of choice.
