  1. Just think of all the money we’ve wasted on bottled water! Living sustainably is so helpful on the wallet, too.

  2. what about all those pharmaceuticals leeching into the “best and safest water supply”?
    search the NYT article- I’m too lazy to link to it.

  3. Yeah, orney said…not to mention pesticides. Isn’t that why we buy organic produce?

    I use a Sigg bottle and refill it from gallon or five gallon distilled or reverse osmosis water jugs.

  4. Also, there’s a BIG difference between “spring” water and purified water. Spring isn’t treated; purified is. All these sensationalistic articles act as if the are one in the same.

  5. The pharmaceuticals in our water – the phthalates – are these filtered out with a Brita pitcher? I doubt it. We are entering unchartered territory.
