    People buy it because it’s “convenient “ for them. It’s a bad habit. Just get a reusable bottle and carry filtered tap water ( that’s what most bottled water is anyway)

    Tap water has additives like fluoride that is very harmful for some people. Also much tap water is contaminated by industrial waste. Maybe we should address that so it's safe to then push tap water.

    Easy to live without bottled water. You just have to decide to do it 👍🏽

    Buy a platypus, and get a filter system if you have doubts about your tap water. https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/Platypus-Soft-Bottle-Push-pull-Cap-500ml-BPA-Reusable-Blue/1822802915?iid=263784144373

    Bottled water isn't any more safe than tap water. Check out recent studies on this. Screw tap and bottled water. I'll stick to my well water thanks. ✌️🤣

    Where are the governments in this? They could put a stop to this any time they wanted, and don't!!

    The bottles are not the problem. The problem is the fools who are willing to pay for something that is, in this country, readily available at low cost. Those same people whine about saving the oceans and the turtles and keep buying bottled water. If you are one of those change your ways or remain a hypocrite and continue to pollute the planet you live on and will leave to your children.

    Tax it properly, to reflect its real cost. $10 per bottle should cover it but who makes these bottles and fills them? Pepsi, Coke and Nestle, governments won't upset them!

    Now Asia decided that enough is enough. They are going to ban all plastic waste imports.
