More on Recyclable Water Bottles

Recyclable Water Bottles

The average American use approximately 167 water bottles a year. While the majority of these water bottles are recyclable, it is estimated that only 12 percent are actually recycled. Want to hear a scary fact: One Plastic water bottle take approximately 1,000 years to bio-degrade. Imagine the impact on land fills when all of these plastic bottles are added each year.

Simple Solution

Also, imagine the impact on our pocketbook. 167 water bottles times $2 a bottle amounts to $334 a year. Why not purchase a reusable water bottle rather than a disposable one. The one I purchase from Tupperware cost me $21. It is insulated so it keeps my water cold and it doesn't sweat. On top of that, it has a lifetime warranty. So not only am I saving over $300 a year, but I no longer have that tinge of guilt every time I take a sip of water from my bottle.
