H2-Uh-Oh

How did your great-grandmother drink her water? Probably not out of a plastic bottle.

Not only did making all that plastic cost the U.S. 17 million barrels of oil and generate more than 2.5 million tons of carbon dioxide in 2006, it also cost consumers as much as $10 per gallon compared to less than a penny per gallon for tap water.

Oh, and bottled water isn't even monitored by the government the way tap water is.
