Something as small as bottled water, does not seem as harmful as it really is. Nevertheless, the fact is that bottled water can be vicious to our world in many ways. We humans have a responsibility to keep our Earth a safe, harmless place for all of us to live in. There is much we can do to accomplish this. We can use glass or metal for water bottles. We can also regulate the water and bottles extra to check for bacteria to secure our health. At last, we don’t have to change anything but just recycle as much as possible to reduce landfills. Bottled water already has an impact on the world environmentally, economically, and also biologically. All these reasons are interconnected in some way and contribute to harming the Earth. As of now, these reasons might not have as big of an effect, but in the future they will become destructive for our world.

Think about all of the stuff tap water can pick up on its way into your home, not to mention the currently unregulated contaminants, like pharmaceuticals. Also, let’s not forget about well water, which is unregulated and can also become contaminated if not properly maintained.

When I buy the bottle water in the store, I choose the one said “plant bottle” “100% recyclable plastic bottle” to buy because I thought I am not hurting the plant by buying it. However, I didn’t realize the process of selling the bottle water could release CO2 to our environment. The seller didn’t tell us the whole story behind it, and only focus on one aspect.
