Consumers are wasting hundreds and thousands of dollars on bottled water because they think it is healthier or safer than its counterpart from the tap. It is not. Tap water is safe and highly regulated and monitored.
In addition to being no purer than tap water and a big waste of money, the production and distribution of bottled water causes a host of equity and environmental problems. These include taking water from communities that depend on it; polluting the environment during the production of plastic; contributing to global warming by transporting bottled water over great distances; and irresponsibly disposing of billions of empty bottles.
