The Greatest Marketing Scam Of Our Time ...

... has got to be bottled water.  It is no safer than tap water; in fact, very often, it is NOTHING MORE than tap water, placed in a bottle that in turn will probably not be recycled and will thereby contribute enormously to our ongoing environment disaster.  And that does not even get into the issue of the contamination of the water itself, while it sits in that plastic bottle.

OK, so it's not healthy, after all.  It's a great bargain, right, when you compare it to bottled sodas, right.  Afraid not.

Do yourself a favor.  Buy a reusable canteen.  Fill it with tap water.  Carry it around with you, and know that you're both drinking and living responsibly.
