I have a ton of friends who just don’t understand that amount of oil that is used for the production of bottles. This definitely makes a great visual depiction.
Want to cut down on oil? You might want to start with the way you drink water. According to these ads from a 2008 Brita water filter campaign,
Last year 16 million gallons of oil were consumed to make plastic water bottles.
More recent figures suggest that bottled water wastes 50 million BARRELS of oil a year. I’m not sure which number is more accurate, but either way, you should really think about ditching the bottled water.
