Word of the day: manufactured demand.

Have you ever heard that bottled water is far more pure and clean than tap water of your city? In most cases that’s false, a recent test from a prestigious group of scientist showed that an overwhelming percent of cities’ regular tap water is just as, or even better then the top of line bottled water product! 

One way to think of it is think of all the environmental damage, in order to extract the water from the “natural spring” if it is even one where they are getting their water from, they need tons of oil and to ship it hundreds of miles, even more. 

Why did i put natural springs into quotes? Well here’s where that word manufactured demand comes in, you know how on the front of the bottle, there is a picture of a beautiful spring on the front? Well the picture should be a faucet, just like the one in your house! That’s right major brands of water like aquafina and dasani are just filtered water.

Also another way the make manufactured demand is by scaring us into thinking that tap water is bad for you.

If you want to think about it another way, did you know that bottled water costs about 2,000 times more than regular tap water that is just as, if not more, tasteful! Why would you bye bottled water for 2,000 times more than tap, would you ever buy a 10,000 dollar sandwich because a famous label says that it is healthy?

In conclusion you should by a re-usable water bottle ( don’t worry if they’re 20 dollars or so, in the long run you’ll be saving 10 times that!) and please for the sake of the earth and your wallet send this to all your friends and we can really make a difference in many ways!
