Stop Using Those Throwaway Water Bottles

Tis true.

--
Break the long distance throwaways - Use refillable bottles and filtered tap water:

Americans consumed more than 31 billion liters of bottled water in 2006 – nearly 28 gallons for every man, woman, and child. Manufacturing all those bottles required 900,000 tons of plastic and emitted as much greenhouse gas as 500,000 cars! Trucking a bottle of water 500 miles can double its climate impact – and some are shipped much, much farther.
Sign pledge here.
