I think the impact of people using plastic bottled water is far greater than the impact of "toxins and radioactive contaminants" that are found in most tap water.

Don't be a germaphobe. Just drink the tap water.
I read an article last week saying that people over-using sunscreen was increasing the sensitivity of their skin to sunlight and resulting in people having vitamin D deficiencies.

Let's focus on the important matter. Yes, plastic bottles are bad.
If there are all these toxins and radioactive contaminants in most tap water, what's the best way to get rid of it? Seems like Brita filters only eliminate some chlorine and metals.

If I was going to pay for liquid in a bottle, water would prob be the last thing I would buy.

- Caffeine makes your body expel more water than you take in for the consumed drink. So you are likely always a bit dehydrated.ETM
- dehydrated. Its just like alcohol. Unless you're drinking caffeine free...ETM
- actually i researched that and it's mostly false. you absorb 2/3 of the liquid in a can of caffeinated soda and not much more in uncaffeinatedscarabin

Some bottled spring water (that is essentially tap water from a different location) could be better than your own local municipal water.
For instance, New Hampshire and Maine seem to have relatively better municipal water than New Jersey or New York State.

I drink San Francisco tap water. Tastes pretty good to me. We used a Brita filter for a while, but it kept growing mold so we threw it out.

if you're in the US, "examine whether contaminants in your water supply met two standards: the legal limits established by the Safe Drinking Water Act, and the typically stricter health guidelines."
(it's in the small left column)
Yup, I'm definitely going to have to look for a way to purify my drinking water.
