Buy the Water.
Not the Bottle.
Together, we really do make a difference!
Just last year, we prevented 630 million plastic bottles from entering the landfills and our oceans.
Thank you!
Bottled Water
A Global Issue
Did You Know?
- 17 million barrels of oil annually are used in the production of plastic bottles.
- Transport of bottled water requires fuel for transportation, sometimes overseas.
- Only 20% of plastic bottles are recycled.
- Plastic takes almost 1000 years to completely biodegrade.
- Each year, over 500 billion disposable bottles and cups enter our landfills and oceans.
- By 2050 the ocean will contain more plastic by weight than fish on our current trajectory.
- Packaging goes beyond the plastic bottle. Labeling, pallets, case packaging, and more all go into shipping large quantities of bottled water.
It’s enough to get anyone who cares down.
We care, and we’re doing what we can to help.
