Go Boxed instead of Bottled!

Monday, September 28th, 2009

Let’s drink out of something better! Bottled water has turned out to be a big mistake. It releases plastic toxins into the water, increases disposable waste and ironically the same as tap water. Let’s face it, bottled water only benefits on-the-go convince.

Thanks to a Grand Rapids based distribution company we can start going old school by drinking water out of milk cartons. What a concept! It’s what Boxed Water calls simple, sustainable and beautiful. So why is it better? The answer is because it makes sense.

Here’s how it works. Boxed Water saves space by shipping their boxes flat to a filler, which is more efficient compared to shipping empty plastic or glass bottles. The cartons are 85 percent renewable and do not release “plastic poisons” into the drinking water. Boxed water gives back to the resources they use by donating 20 percent of their profit to world water relief and reforestation foundations.

Boxed Water isn’t perfect, but its better! When you drink bottled water you’re taking a risk and damaging the earth, but with boxed water you’re helping the planet and the future of your health.

If we start drinking water that makes sense and is actually better, maybe Boxed Water will be the new bottled water trend!
