1. A lot of energy is wasted in the preparation and distribution of it.
The planet accumulates a lot of waste from plastic bottles if people drink a lot of bottled water. When plastic bottle waste is burned, toxic pollution is released into the environment. 2. If the water is treated, processed and sold by a company, the water is bottled water. If people can drink water without any problem, this water is drinking water. 3. Companies obtain raw materials from nature to make bottles, then companies obtain them. They manufacture, when the companies have already manufactured the bottles, they fill them with processed water. When the water is already bottled, the bottles will be distributed until they reach the people. Once the empty bottles are collected, if they are not thrown away or incinerated, the bottles will be used to make new, lower-quality products. 4. If plastic bottles don't end up in landfills for many years, they end up in incinerators where toxic pollutants are expelled. 5. If we work to ban the purchase of bottled water throughout the city, people will drink drinking water. If we pressure our city officials in our city to bring in drinking water sources, we will achieve they do. 6. It's very common. Many people in my community have water filters in their homes and fill a bottle with water every time they go out. When people do this, they don't need to buy bottled water. 7. It has been a long time since I drank bottled water. I have some reasons and one of them is that I spend less money if I don't drink bottled water, another is that I think it is not worth spending money on it if I can get water out of the bottle faucet. 8. I will encourage my family and others not to drink bottled water and participate in campaigns against the use of plastic bottles.
