I have never understood how millennials have championed bottle water when the waste produced is off the charts. At the risk of sounding like a grumpy old woman, “what’s wrong with tap water?” Plus, you can carry a water bottle that is refillable if you really need that much water. Sheesh!

Neither have I. I know very so-called environmentally conscious people that buy things in throw-away plastic containers, especially food.

I don’t consider myself an environmentalist but the tremendous amount of plastic waste is worrisome.

I knew someone that worked in the food-paper packaging industry. Their holy grail was and I suppose still is to produce a paper soft drink container.

Usually it tastes terrible and often contains bad stuff. Filtering is almost always necessary.
