“The bottled water companies are draining our aquifers and selling it back to us,”

I am not against companies or profit, but lets use good ideas, innovative ones stemming from humanities ingenuity not from its laziness. IDEA lets create a little plastic bottle for every 8 oz of water that we drink that then gets thrown away where it never decomposes and end up who knows where FOREVER. Where is the ingenuity in that? I know it is now in our culture, but it doesn't make sense. I see plastic bottles everywhere on this small island of American Samoa. I can't imagine how many are in our landfills on the mainland USA that we just don't think about because we can't see them. Many end up in the middle of the Pacific. Pacific Garbage Patch style.

YOU CAN ELIMINATE PLASTIC BOTTLES OF EMPTY THAT WERE ONCE FILLED WITH WATER!

Drink water from your tap.

Carry a reusable bottle and fill it up.

Consider a plastic water bottle ban.

Look at what Mrs. Hill is doing in a small Massachusetts Town.
