Environmental Ethics #2: bottled water



Nowadays, consuming bottled water has become one of the most common thing to do; nearly 1 billion bottles of water are being shipped to each cities each week in the US alone. At this point, what we should do is try to use as little energy as we can because we are running out natural resources; but instead, we are wasting about 1.5 million barrels of oil a year making plastic water bottles. Is bottled water really better and healthier than tap water? Why do people spend so much money on bottled water when tap water is just as good and healthy?
