UPDATE: THE ANTI-BOTTLED WATER CRUSADE

It struck me that I spent some time posting about how I changed my perspective on bottled water due to increased awareness thanks to the extended media coverage on this issue BUT I haven't followed up with how it's changed my behavior.

It's been about a month and I'm happy to say we no longer buy bottled water in bulk (or at all, really). We switched to one of those Brita water pitchers for our home use and have not missed the bottled water at all.

At work, meanwhile, I now use a Nalgene bottle for drinking water at my desk.

Hopefully we can keep it up and continue reducing our impact on the environment (and on our wallets).

You'll be happy to know that I have also joined your crusade. My weekly Voss bottle habit has been replaced by a Nalgene bottle.
