Modern Living: Ditch the water bottles
Small bottles; massive problem How big is the problem?
Take a guess.
How many bottles of water do Americans go through every year?
As outrageous as it sounds it’s 50 billion bottles and 38 billion of those bottles are not recycled.
Still though, some 12 million bottles are recycled and that’s why recycling facilities seem clogged by them.
Those recycled bottles end up in products like clothes, containers, and even pens, which is great, but eventually those items end up in the garbage too.
So you’re just delaying the inevitable.
Go reusable The best thing to do for the environment is to get a reusable container for your hydration needs.
It’s also cheaper.
A win for the Earth and a win for your wallet.
