We’ve
been naughty. During the past several months, I’m certain we’ve discarded enough plastic water bottles to build an
additional room on our house. Barring the instability and lack of privacy,
imagine how pretty it would look with the sun reflecting through the plastic
walls. I don’t know who thought of bottling and selling water, but they’re
earning a fortune and creating an environmental mess. Check out the creative
clean-up:
This
guy’s taking proverbial lemons and making lemonade, going above and beyond what
you would think you could do with a water bottle. Still, despite the awesome ways
people can minimize the impact of
plastic bottle on the environment, we need to reduce their usage. The end
doesn’t always justify the means. What have you done that ended well, yet in hindsight,
you know you shouldn’t have “gone there” in the first place?

I only drink water from fixed plumbing and usually out of a "glass" or straight from the fountain. The 3 R's of environmentalism have always been ordered in my mind as: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Reduce consumption comes first so that is always what I attempt first.
Good point. Bottled water is so convenient and has a special place in humanitarian efforts, but in daily living, reducing output is key. Thanks for your great advice, Emma.
Not sure if I want to eat a cake that has been cooking for a year...
Pretty sure he's got enough bacteria built up to avoid all types of illnesses.
