Myth: Bottled water is convenient.


“Bottled Water Myth Versus Reality” - Prepared by The Story of Stuff Project - is a document that exposes the lie in the myth which states "Bottled water is convenient" and explains why is tap water much more beneficial than bottled water, one good reason is nothing beats the convenience of free tap water from your own kitchen, there is nothing convenient about shipping water thousands of miles from its source, plus the effort and the money spend just to dispose this bottles takes away all the so called convenience they say there is.


It does not make sense to pay relatively so much for a product that is available for free. Is absurd to take money out of your pocket and keep recurring to buy bottles of water when you can have one reusable bottle and refill it as much as you want at the same time helping against pollution. I’ll say one of the biggest problem occurs right after drinking the bottle of water, you are left with a plastic that takes over 1000 years to dispose and harms the world in many ways.
