Hate plastic. But I find it impossible to get away from. It's everywhere.

is your brita made out of metal?

the problem with bottled water isnt the plastic as much as the energy it takes to produce and ship it all around the world. think about how heavy it is, how much fuel it uses up and all the byproducts. i drink brita water but i have to admit that bottled topo chico is soooo good.

does not create retarded amount of plastic waste. How often you gotta change the filter? not very. How many plastic bottles would you rip through in the same amount of time? about seventeebillion, i presume.

meh. glass bottles...cant stop drinking cokes, beers, topo chicos, wines...ect...same deal really. expensive to produce and recyclable. water is different. brita until someone tells me that they have BPA linings too.

yes, I understand. but the keyboard I am typing with is made of plastic and I'm sure that in a minute it may break, so then i'll toss it in the toilet of an ocean.
please wash your hands after touching your glory hole. you can use bottled water or tap if you prefer, please just practice proper infection control.

I tend to run on the trashy side with mullets and alcholics and wife beaters. Sorry about making fun of your glory hole, whatever orface it may be. ;-)

When I think of water I think of plastic. .

I no longer make my living by making plastic water bottles.

So yes, Brita is the way to go!
