Eco-Tip: Using Eco-Friendly Alternatives To Bottled Water

Ever wonder where those ubiquitous water fountains that once dotted our public spaces have gone? It is unfortunate that the decline of this once ordinary public service has coincided with the rise of a bottled water fad. Unfortunate, because the popular demand of bottled water is very sobering if you stop to consider the amount of waste it creates.

Using a good filter system in conjunction with custom reusable water bottles can save the average consumer hundreds of dollars a year. It'll also be far more eco-friendly as many bottles of water are made of unrecycled plastic.

I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with a nice cold promotional bottle of water, at least reuse your bottles of water before tossing them away. Or even better recycle them.
