Cut Bottled Water Use: Filter for Good!
Stumble it!
Want to do something great for the environment that’s easy and fun? Why sure you do. Check out Filter for Good, a new initiative from Brita and Nalgene. They are trying to inspire all of us to kick our bottled water habit.
Did you know that Americans send over 35 billion water bottles a year to landfills? And it takes about 1.5 million barrels of oil to make those bottles, so it is an environmental double whammy. (By the way that’s enough oil to fuel 100,000 cars for a year!)
Take the Filter For Good pledge to reduce your use of water bottles and you’ll not only help the planet, but you’ll get coupons for Brita and Nalgene products. Learn more and take the pledge!

Yes, filters are the way to go to cutting back on the evils of plastic but don’t be fooled into thinking filters filter out everything in your water…..Everyone should get their water tested for all harsh chemicals, esp. cancer causing elements.
