My Contribution

I drink a lot of water. My taste buds work well. The water here is Utah isn't the best. Therefore I buy bottled water. I usually drink between 1.5 and 2 liters a day while at work. That's roughly 3 to 4 regular plastic water bottles.

3 x 5 x 52 = ~780 bottles per year

Not only does this get expensive (about $10 a month), but since "The City of Trees" where I live doesn't have a recycling program, I'm contributing lots of plastic to the landfill. So I've decided to change my habits.

I bought these:


Sure, the pitcher and bottle were a little expensive, but they will pay for themselves in about 3 months. Plus, the Sigg bottle doesn't alter the nice taste of the water after going through the Brita filter. Win Win.
