What impact does drinking bottled water have on the environment?
It is estimated that 80% of plastic waste in the ocean results from human activity on land, while 20% comes from human activity at sea (marine traffic, fishing, aquaculture, oil rigs, etc.)
The plastic pollution situation in 2015:
- 5 vortexes of plastic waste
- 260,000 tons of plastic particles floating in the ocean
- More than 3.5 billion people depend on oceans for sustenance
- 1 million birds are killed each year
- 250 million tons of plastic is produced each year, of which 10% ends up at sea
For every 1 litre of bottled water in your local supermarket, 3 litres have been used to make and ship it to you.
