Not to dispute the point of the toon’, but exactly what are some viable alternatives to using plastic water bottles and such? I understand that a LOT of things that are wrapped or packaged in plastic can have alternative packaging, and we can use reusable bags for shopping, or even go back to paper bags in a pinch and the like, but what about water? Glass bottles are one choice, but disposing of them is just about as hard as the plastic ones, plus they can break. Then there could be cardboard like the old milk cartons, but then again there is the waste and destruction of trees to make them. Some folks DO have refillable water containers, and that’s a good idea, but we need to find SOME alternative means of carrying a portable source of water especially during heat waves like a LOT of the country is enduring right now.
