EVIDENCE: THE STORY OF BOTTLED WATER
1. ¿What are the problems derived from drinking bottled water?
Mention two
One problem is when the extraction and the use of oil products of
bottles, is done much energy is lost in the preparation and
distribution of the same. The planet accumulates many plastic
bottle wastes if people drink a lot of bottled water. When plastic
bottled waste is burned, toxic contamination is released into the
environment.
2. ¿ what is the difference between bottled water and drinking
water?
If the water is treated, processed and sold by a campany, the
water is bottled water. If water can be drunk by people without
any problem this water is drinking water.
3. Describe the process involved in manufacturing a plastic bottle.
Companies obtain raw materials from nature to manufacture
bottles, then companies manufacture them, when the companies
have already manufactured the bottles, they fill the bottles with
processed water. When the water has already been bottled, the
bottles will be distribuited until they reach the people. After the
empty bottles are collected, if they are not thrown or incinerated,
the bottles will be used to make new products of lower quality.
4. ¿ What happens with the plastic bottles after we throw them
away?
If the plastic bottles do not end up dumping in landfills for many
years, they end up in incinerators where toxic contaminats are
expelled.
