I dislike the American lifestyle, greatly. That doesn't mean that I don't embrace some aspects of it or don't do somethings myself that are morally questionable. But as somebody once said; "don't forgo the better for the perfect". I'll never be perfect but that doesn't mean I can't improve myself.I like to look in the mirror every morning and say, "Self, What Wouldn't Paris Hilton Do". Yes, I address myself as "Self" and capitalize every word when I speak. Paris Hilton wouldn't drink from the tap, so that's our first clue that bottled water is bad. Granted, if you run a Google image search of, Paris Hilton Water, the second image will show her drinking a glass of clear liquid but I'm pretty sure it actually contains Indian tears.It comes down to this: Bottled water is no better for you than most tap water, bottled water is wasteful, water bottles aren't heavily recycled and you're a dick for drinking bottled water.

Facts:

Water is made up of 2 hydrogen atoms with 1 oxygen atom, even Evian.

Bottled water comes from two primary sources: the tap or some fancy place you think is better than the tap but isn't.

A quarter of all bottled water crosses national borders, another quarter comes from the tap.

Water bottles do not require a 5 cent deposit thus negating my recycling/donation effort I like to call "throwing away cans to employ the homeless".

My charity work is ineffective with water bottles, 125 million end up in Oregon's landfills each year.There are a billion people without suitable drinking water, you're not one of them. Therefore; you're a dick for drinking bottled water.
