Do you know how much waste in landfills is due to plastic water bottles?
8 out of 10 bottles make it to the landfills.
Estimates for 2006 say at least 38 billion water bottles were landfill waste that year alone!
That's a scary number. How much real estate are we going to ruin with plastic-filled landfills?
I refill my plastic bottle with water from the faucet and a filter. It's easy to install one in your home. Filters range in price from the faucet kind for $15 to $430 for a central home system.
Just think: If you buy or consume at least 7 bottles a week at $1 per bottle, that's $28/month = $336 per year that would more than pay for a water filtration system. If you bought a faucet filter, then you would save $$$!
Here is a buying guide to water filters
