Comments on: The bottled water debate – purer than tap water?

The Fluoride molecule is smaller than H2O, and DOES NOT LEAVE the water once it is administered. That is why home filtration is ineffective against it, as well as Bottled water that comes from a Municipal source. And worse, many bottled water companies ADD Fluoride to the water, and claim that Reverse Osmosis filtration removes it. IT DOES NOT. That is why the E.P.A. [Environmental Protection Agency] forbids dumping the Toxic Waste into the Environment; it does not get out of the water once it is contaminated. That accounts for the 4 ppb of Fluoride in the ground-water [contaminant] that the Bottle Water companies says is “Naturally occurring,” because it shows up in even the ground water. When the EPA issues a warning about the fish in the river having a high Mercury content, and warns that you should not consume more than 1 per week, that is saying something about the water that the fish lives in: the fish is but a sponge for the water. Want to see how much Mercury is in the water: test the fish.

This is why the EPA allows the Fertilizer and Aluminum industries to dump their poisonous toxic waste into our drinking supplies: our GOD given organs make excellent washing machines, our bones make excellent storage tanks, and it doesn’t return back to the environment. Think of the billions of human washing machines and storage tanks. It stores itself in our bones.

Now consider this: when more and more people quit drinking their city water: the waste water returns back to the water treatment facility and so does the Fluoride. This means they get backed up 55 gallon drums of unprocessed, toxic wasted. They cannot measure a higher concentration than 4,000 ppb. This means they cannot add in more than 266 times the amount of Lead [yet is MORE toxic than lead] and they cannot add in more than 400 times the amount of Arsenic [although it is Almost as toxic as Arsenic] So when they start losing their human washing machines, and billions of gallons no longer consumed, and the Fluoride RETURNED BACK TO THEM, they realized that they had a problem with the DISPOSAL SYSTEM. They then turned and approached all of the water bottle companies. Most of these companies already use a Municipal Fluoridated water source for its products. On top of the Fluoride and disinfectant already in the city water, they run it through a Reverse Osmosis Filter, and often times add more Fluoride and disinfectant to the bottled water. In the early 1900’s, Dr. Hodge, who worked on a solution for getting rid of the hazardous waste, theorized that it might be good for teeth as protection against cavities [it is not], and proclaimed to the American public that a dose not higher than 1 ppb might be safe to ingest [and it is not safe to ingest], it gained Access into almost every drinking water source in the Country. Today, a toxic amount of 4,000 ppb is being dumped into 66% of our nation’ drinking water, there are slowly more and more people calling their Mayer and local government officials informing them of the Truth about Fluoride. Mayors and townspeople who once also believed Fluoride was harmless and good for their teeth, are now astounded that they have been giving poisoned water to the wives and children at their dinner tables, while those who sell it to them drink pure, filtered, UN-FLUORIDATED Natural Spring water back home. They know more than most people what it does, and yet when a township rejects or cancels their orders, the P.R. for the Fluoride companies act stunned before the newspaper reporters and say ‘We’re shocked…we don’t know why they don’t want it…’
They know. Most of Europe has STOPPED pouring Fluoride into their drink water.

The Government makes billions of dollars along with the Fertilizer and Aluminum companies selling this to Municipalities across the Nation [their plan has been to give it to humans to keep the Environment clean]
Now they don’t have to pay Billions of dollars to properly dispose of it, and Lobbyists generously contribute to Campaign Funds [an "acceptable bribe"].

From your email id, I gather you are a school kid. Well, if two people write an article on the same topic, it’s not plagiarism. Btw, you should always use spell check, especially if you are going to write in capitals (I’m really hoping you are a student and not a teacher!)

I think that it is important to find out exactly what is in the water you are drinking by knowing what is tested for by your water company in your area. I found out what mine did on http://www.homefacts.com/waterquality.html

@ Nomad: I think that may be Parisian pretence in general Some will tell you how San Pellegrino is better/ worse than Perrier and so on. In blind tests they can’t tell one from the other. It is just unadulterated bovine excreta about nothing. In London, the best restaurants offer tap water as well as bottled and a few restaurant critics now ‘dock’ marks in reviews if tap water is not offered.

The worrisome thing is the sugared waters which are increasingly being sold. They cater to the infantilised palate that can only do sweet taste or nothing. Tragic really to see grown-ups lapping these arbitrary premises up. But then if rationality and need were really the bases of life, many things may not exist as you point out.

Yup, I agree with you. People here drink only bottled water, for God knows what reason. When we invite people, we buy water for them.
I think carbonated drinks, mineral water and fashion (especially the outre things that are made in the name of art and creativity) are three scams that show that good marketing can convince people to need or use something for daily consumption when they do not need it at all and create a market for something so useless and pointless.
It is interesting to follow how mineral water was originally marketed as safe water for tourists (which is sensible) and now I see the ads here saying it is good for health as it has these “minerals”. As if public supply clean water is distilled and devoid of minerals. And carbonated drinks were originally marketed as good for digestion (like ENO) and slowly the marketing strategy changed to – it is COOL to have coke.

I agree – these are marketing success stories. Why else would someone drink brown, sugared, caffeinated soda aka Coke/Pepsi? It actually looks like ditch water..

Bacteria and fertilizer is fine… but what’s with the pain reliever acetaminophen??

My guess is, it might indicate sewage contamination..

Good point about going Brita or Pur or straight tap if either is your pleasure. There still will be people who buy water bottles though, and there’s room to make them greener and biodegradable at least. There are biodegradable corn plastics on the market for example. I use a Pur filter at home but have not been able to get the rest of my family to leave their Aquafina non-biodegradable bottles at the store.

If you are interested, there’s an effort to pressure PepsiCo to switch to biodegradable bottles for Aquafina water. Check it out at http://www.thepoint.com/campaigns/put-aquafina-in-biodegradable-bottles-or-else

I just joined as I feel we need to just get one of the bottled water makers to make the switch and that will hopefully encourage other water companies to follow their lead.

Biodegradable bottles are certainly a great idea!
