Did you know that in the United States alone, an estimated 345 billion gallons of water are used daily? This correlates to each American using about 80 to 100 gallons of water every single day. This shouldn’t be surprising – we live in a world of consumerism, and unfortunately, this even correlates to how we use natural resources like electricity and water. And in today’s economy, prices of everything are rising. But what are you supposed to do when your water bill keeps getting bigger and bigger? It’s not like you can just go without water. In that same spirit of buy, buy, sell, sell, we buy bottled water from companies that are filled with chemicals.
