Please meet Fred.
Two days ago, I met and bought Fred, a water bottle. I have been refilling ‘him’ since. I like Fred, yeah, I am a sucker for packaging. Fred even has a online magazine, it’s called fredspot.. Oh the stuff marketing people come up with these days.
Hi. I love your blog, but this is not ecologically wise to drink bottled water or promote it. I absolutely love some of the bottled water designs out there, but it’s a shockingly huge waste of oil and water itself (takes 5x the amt of the water inside to produce the plastic) and afterwards, more than 80% of the bottles are trashed instead of recycled. Here’s a good site to get more information http://www.foodandwaterwatch.org/water/bottled
I love Fred, I get Fred once a month. :)
