Wall-E totally looks like the robot from “Short Circuit”… minus the cheesy 80’s style of course

Actually, according to blind taste tests NY city tap water wins over bottled water.

your article was eye-opening, but its sad that I probably won’t change from bottled water to tap because poland springs tastes so good and tap…well it just doesn’t!

I was just reading a blog that compared the cost of a gallon of bottled water at $1.25/bottle to a gallon of gas and found it it would be like $10/gallon of water. Why aren’t we taking advantage of tap water. I’m fortunate enough to be able to drink from the tap without filtering, but in the long run, the cost of a filter would save a ton of purchasing bottled water.

So I love this post, pretty lady!! And I agree with Jeremy. Prices are going up and up too with this economic slump, so it really wouldn’t hurt to bite the bullet and use Nalgene bottles.

If you are still turned off by tap water (basically if you are a Spring water snob), another green way to go about it would be to buy a Brita filter. That way you are still drinking tap water rather than wasting an inordinate amount of plastic. GO NALGENE!!! WOOOOO!!!

It’s amazing what we’re prepared to pay for convenience. Too bad the full environmental cost can’t be factored into the shelf price.

Cloth Bags Rock. Using a bag made from a natural material is a durable and extra eco-friendly solution to the paper vs. plastic conundrum. Natural materials biodegrade and don’t give off toxins.

Comment on Hy-brid. Hm… isn’t that what happens when you cross a zebra with a donkey? by groovygreengirl

By pure chance, I was driving behind a Prius today myself. THEY ARE SO HOT. And on the back, they have a little icon which says “HYBRID.” So cool.

I have a toyota corolla. Not a hybrid, but not bad with gas either: 32 Highway MPG
