Top 5 Reasons You Should Drink From Glass

Top 5 Reasons You  Should Drink From Glass

1. Protecting the Environment

Last year 30 billion plastic water bottles were sold in the United States alone. Eighty percent end up in landfills or are burned in incinerators, which release toxic pollution into the air.

2. Safeguarding Health

Unlike plastic, glass does not contain any harmful chemicals such as BPA, phthalate, PVC, or polycarbonate, so you don’t have to worry about anything leaching from the container to the water.

3. Preserving Natural Resources

Plastic water bottles are a petroleum-based product. Making a year’s worth of plastic bottles for the U.S. market uses enough oil and energy to fuel a million cars.

4. Saving Money

Once you invest in a glass drinking bottle, it cost less than 50 cents a gallon for purified tap water from a machine at a local grocery store. Compare that to the $1.45 cost of an average one-liter plastic bottle of water.

5. Better Taste

Glass bottles give you pure-tasting water. Glass is made from all-natural, sustainable raw materials and if you leave your glass water bottle in your car on a hot summer day, you’ll have hot, but still pure-tasting, water.
