A possible signal of a new movement, takebackthetap.org is a site run by Food & Water Watch to create awareness in the public of the misconceptions most have about both tap water and bottled water, especially in terms of cleanliness and environmental friendliness. The bottom line? Just because water comes in a sealed plastic bottle doesn’t make it any cleaner than the tap water in your area. In fact, it might even be dirtier! The site includes lists of restaurants in New York, San Francisco and Portland that have made commitments to ban bottled water from their menus, as well as a learning section to inform you about the health, justice, and economic impact of bottled water versus tap water.
