In the 80’s, bottled water was something new. I visited a soft drink bottling plant in PA that was converting to bottling water. They said it was going to be a big thing. I was skeptical. They told me that all the cost was in the packaging (the bottle), marketing, and shipping/handling. The product inside came from regular water from the tap. The tap water came from wells and could legally be called spring water. It was essentially free. So the profit margins were very high.

Putting Chlorine in tap should be ban. Chlorine is the big reason people don't drink tap water

Only in a couple of US states, it doesn't work like that anywhere else, so just buy proper water from Europe where they have legal standards. And no-one has ever said there will be more plastic than fish before this guy said it right here.

[@kevinadams9468]

Incorrect. Spring water has to actually come from a spring. BUT: any water from 'the tap', which is leqal, must be labeled PWS. That is Public Water Source. If you buy PWS bottled water, you do not pass Go and do not collect 200 dollars.

[@tomf429]

Well water qualifies as spring water. It comes from an underground aquifer and other than the cost of sinking the well and well pump, it comes right out of the tap at the water plant. Better brands further purify the well/spring water before bottling, which removes contaminants and many beneficial minerals. 45% of all bottled water is pure tap water, from the Public Water Source.

1st the revenue stream developed by a company serving society pays more taxes than you or I by a factor of 10,000 and that is because they solved a societal problem, 2nd don't hasteful in placing blame so that you and I can pay for it through higher pricing and taxes. This is an inconclusive assessment with no verifiable proof of damage to us and you want to react without evidence based on a theory built on fear of suspicion. You know, anthropogenic global warming is also a theory and the evidence continues to prove the theory wrong, short term.. Just so that you know, 99.99% of all "scientifically" published theories are proven wrong over time and the scrutiny of science (science rarely proves facts and mostly disproves theories). Do you really want government to deploy policies based on a theory that has only 1 in 10,000 of a chance of being true? All problems must 1st be identified and then defined before a solution can be considered. Plastic solved many of our problems since its development in the 1940's but there has been some collateral damage as is the case with all inventions that solve a problem. Plastic in our water and extra CO2 in our atmosphere have not caused a health or economic problem to us, yet, but some animals have died from ingesting large amounts of colored plastic and upsets the ecosystem which will eventually affect us but to what level of intensity is speculative. Finally, if we take your mind set to fruition then all inventions are bad as they cause collateral damage and we should cease to progress. That would certainly reduce the human population and we can revert to many different problems we mitigated over the last several 1000 years. so be careful how you lend your power to your government as it may be penny wise and pound foolish in the end

my guess is that it would contain more of these things, since the bottled water companies do filter the water from local source. so the best thing we can do at the present is to buy a water filter for drinking water. lol. also, normally the filters filter out the fluoride from tap water (which sort of disinfect the water), so don't drink a filtered water that's been seating there for 2days and exposed to air. the filter is a moist environment so there is risk of bacteria growth, therefore change it often and keep out of warm places.

Look up ocean waste by country and then tell me if you think the American system of waste handling is ineffective, or even relevant to fixing the problem right now. Also, where do you imagine waste polluting our environment is coming from? I think there are only a couple possibilities: #1: Some people do not throw trash into any bin, and instead litter. This is not a problem fixed by recycling. Let's look at waste that does end up in bins, then. #2: Trash blows out from bins with the wind or while bags are handled, recycling and landfill alike. This again is not fixed by recycling. Recycling fixes resource consumption, but in a lot of cases produces much more carbon emissions than just throwing waste in a landfill. Other than that it doesn't fix anything.

This is less about bottled water than it is about water itself. Microplastics are everywhere and part of the reason is all of the plastic bottles we use for water but even without bottled water we would have microplastics everywhere, including our water. There is a difference between spring water and filtered or "purified (tap)" water. When I open the kitchen tap I can smell a stronger bleach odor than the water in the swimming pool when the pool chemicals are at the right levels. I tested kitchen tap water with the swimming pool water test kit & the total chlorine content was at the perfect level for the pool. The free chlorine content was also at the perfect level for the pool. The PH and the alkalinity were both close to the right amount for swimming pool water.

My point is, money is not the root of any evil at all, a person's intentions are the root of their evil or good. Money is an object, it's no more inherently good or evil than a roll of toilet paper or a hammer. So, for platitudes, I'd go with, a person is only as good as their intentions and deeds. A person with good intention that performs a deed that causes harm swiftly rectifies that harm, due to their good intentions. A person with bad intentions cannot be counted upon to rectify harm that they caused. But, corporations aren't individuals, they're large groups of people and large groups of people frequently will lose their moral center, due to the statutory requirement that a company makes a profit to reward its investors.

The problem is that plastic is lighter to ship in bulk. I would suggest that it is safer too, but many other products are still delivered reasonably in glass without significant recurring injuries. Even Perrier and Gatorade are now sold in plastic at the same price as before, if not slightly higher. So the whole industry isn't likely to reverse converting almost everything to plastic in the near future. The numbers are just not there any more. Many backs have been saved by moving to plastic delivery jugs for office water coolers, so there is a legit personnel reason for the switch as well. Glass is rapidly receding as a mass packaging material, even in the beer industry. Metal is a pretty good option though. It is a bit more expensive, but the incentive of paid recycling makes it a worthwhile alternative to plastic. La Croix water stands out by being sold in metal containers for decades, but others have recently started regularly canning water as well.

[@pamelalaub6204]

@Lee Turner - No, but there's no guarantee the bottled water is free of contaminates or flouride. You just pay more money and add plastic to the environment.

[@jordan_too]

Right, because you needed a report to become aware of your own loathsome waste.

[@pattycake5643]

I just want to add that the guy who invented the keurig machine regrets what he did there, as of adding all that waist to the land fills. But it sort of says a lot about the people who still by them.

Have never purchased a bottle of water...in fact, it tastes funny to me & makes me more thirsty than Tap water. Never could understand how the bottled water did not quench my thirst....Thank You for this video

When they mentioned sample sources they forgot to mention the scariest of all, the source that we use the most: air. Yes, we are breathing plastic. In a study they found microplastics in the air from places as far as 60 miles away from the closest town. Imagine how much plastic is on the air in big cities.

[@jeannebentsen2794]

That is from the chemical trails you see all over the sky.

[@TheHenirik]

60 miles? they have found plastic and plastic chemicals in rainwater and fresh snow in antarctica, its everywhere today

[@Tiffany-cv3hl]

Or is it hydrogel?

[@jamiwilliams5885]

@@jeannebentsen2794 I dont think they use plastics in cloud seeding. Its barium and silver iodide which affects brain function in humans when too many heavy metals get lodged and short circuit the brain. Same effect as drinking from cans

[@lenakrupinski6303]

Yes, Dane Wiginton is a good source of information on the chemicals being sprayed on to us by solar geo engineering !!!🙏🌎🙏

Best to get a quailty water filteration system for your home, add a quality mineral supplement. LifeStraw products are great as well

[@donnabrown8582]

I’m lucky enough to live near spring water. Just go to the small lake where fresh water comes up daily and fill some jugs. Am very careful to leave the bottles out of the sunlight though

[@Pokemonfan_]

Love how it shows where the water comes from

[@luclongly529]

They took way too long to get to the point in this story 🙄🤭

[@jobdoneright5934]

@AB BY so is tap water

[@signupisannoying]

Yes indeed. That's the beauty of utube, now we can just skip skip skip and go back if we skip too far. In the old TV days, you have no choice but to pay attention because if you miss, you can't go back!

[@bubujooestes1499]

Luc Longly Exactly.Just wanted know if it is SAFE to drink.Had to stop watching after a while

[@rickyhartley8936]

I agree

[@deborahdarr1964]

Luc Longly that's why you can skip to the end! 👀

[@Dorothy4Justice]

I will continue to buy spring water,bcuz I believe it's better than tap water. Good video. I've noticed a lot of water is just filtered water.

[@BrianMcGuirkBMG]

Bottled water is just someone else's tap water.

[@ninamartinez2239]

That's what i have said for years someone is standing over a hose filling them up LOL

[@michaeljohnson7929]

​@@ninamartinez2239 I'm surprised American's buy tap water in bottles. In the UK you have to label tap water, as "tap water". Coca Cola already failed trying to sell their tap water here, no one has ever tried again.

[@BrianMcGuirkBMG]

@@michaeljohnson7929 Surprise! Surprise! UK bottled water comes from a tap. All water is spring water. It had to spring from somewhere. Spring is just a marketing term, like "Natural" and most of the other words written on our products.

[@michaeljohnson7929]

Brian McGuirk it isn’t processed, something people living in America wouldn’t understand.

[@BrianMcGuirkBMG]

@@michaeljohnson7929 It's quite naive to think that there is no process. There is a process which puts water into a bottle which also has to include processes of filtration and disinfection. The source may vary the complexity of the process but there is a process nonetheless. Water is taken from the wild for human consumption. It's not possible to do this without using taps. Astonishing that you declare ignorance according to national boundaries. The ignorance which counts here is that which allows marketing to do its thing.

[@lorenebishop9031]

Spent the winter of '18-'19 on Maui, volunteering with Pacific Whale Foundation, the Humpback Whale Sanctuary, and nonstop beach cleanup. It is so very sad that every. single. stretch. of beach is contaminated with plastic debris, especially microplastics :'(

[@lyndafayesmusic]

i THINK the smartest fish swim North! CUSTOMERS HAVE TO BOYCOTT AND DEMAND IT. Stores only follow the money: My doctor's office staff TESTED me on their bottled water/plastic/samples..The only sample that did not taste like plastic, was the one they drew from the water fountain water! I passed their test at every vist! (Did the test at the Burger King Plastic container/dispenser too!) I told THEM their water container was PLASTIC! Many of us have already known this about plastics; Dr. Leigh Lipton. who was a biochemist and medical examiner for LA County, said "let the water sit overnight from your TAP, let the chemicals dissipate into the air, and USE GLASS BOTTLES ONLY. Now I want to know why not TEST that tap water TOO ? At least the sharks and fish are learning to avoid plastic as much as they can, already !Fish might be smarter than humans by now ? I'm praying that the mermaids survive the turmoil. The Little Blue Mermaid in Three languages, Ana Marie Ceuca.

[@brendastolp484]

Is horrible

[@lorimangold2890]

What was it, Chief Seattle said, "continue to contaminate, and you will one day suffocate in your own waste"

[@alicerodriguez7540]

What can we do just stop buy.

[@nuranarrowood6306]

he said very correct Chief

[@thaler6363]

I use a Stanley stainless steel bottle to carry my water and I no longer buy bottled water. I also use glass canning jars to store water. Glass is much cleaner then plastics.
