But just wondering .... has anyone here looked into what it takes to make a stainless steel or aluminum bottles? You don't just pick them off the trees ... there's a lot of processing, pollution, and all the rest of it. Are they really an environmentally friendly option?
No, they're not.
Basically, we're flucked, because we've created this unsustainable house of cards.

Sorry to be such a downer, but it's the plain truth.

BTW, Machka, have you read up on some of the absolute devastation that oil companies are inflicting upon the "oil sands"? Do you know that cancer rates are through the roof? You can't eat the fish, you can't drink the water... WTF kind of world are we creating?

It ain't pretty, and it will lead to painful consequences.
