More on Bottled Water

Canadian environmentalist, David Suziki: Buying bottled water is wrong


I'm not surprised David Suziki would be against buying bottled water.
In the article, though, he encourages people to use tap water. Unfortunately, there are 100's of questionable chemicals in our own Burlington drinking water - one of which is fluoride (you all know how I feel about that!). The Burlington Board of Health's actions on fluoride and the local People Concerned about Chloramines' work to stop chloramination of water by CWD are hugely uphill battles when the Dept of Health supports the status quo! We don't know what is in the bottled water either, or how many people might be losing their drinking water, as it is being sold to the bottling corporations.

I blogged about the importance of our water in earlier posts here, here, and here.
