A Must See! The Shocking Story of Bottled Water #TakeBackTheTap

Take Back The Tap

The Story of Bottled Water was released on March 22, 2010 (World Water Day)

-

-

It employs the Story of Stuff style to tell the story of manufactured demand — how you get Americans to buy more than half a billion bottles of water every week when it already flows from the tap.

-

-

Over five minutes, the film explores the bottled water industrys attacks on tap water and its use of seductive, environmental-themed advertising to cover up the mountains of plastic waste it produces.

-

-

The film concludes with a call to “take back the tap”, not only by making a personal commitment to avoid bottled water, but by supporting investments in clean, available tap water for all.
