Yes, we all know that recyclable plastic bottles are bad for the environement, but do you know how bad?? After extensive research on the web, I found that :
80% of all platic bottles are not recycled
38 million plastic bottles go to the dump each year
24 million gallons of oil are needed to produce a billion plastic bottles (that’s the equivalent of filling the bottle up with oil to make it)
The average american consumes 167 bottles of water a year
Bottling and shipping water is the LEAST energy efficient method ever used to supply water!
So, what is Truckee Meadows Water Systems doing to help combat this problem? We are giving away a free 16 ounce Nagene bottle to everyone of our customers! Please stop by 245 Winter street and pick one up today.
