Bottled water is bad because of the plastic that the water is bottled in.

The plastic bottles are bad for the environment and it takes a lot of plastic to bottle all that bottled water.

The plastics can also leach chemicals into the water you're drinking and it takes resources to transport all that water from the bottling company to the store.

Also bottled water is actually just city water that goes through a filtering process.

The bottled water does not come from mountains and streams etc that some bottled water companies claim.

The bottled water machines are hooked to city water systems and then the water is bottled by machines.

So the water you get in bottled water is just the same tap water that comes out of your tap but just filtered.

Also some natural needed minerals are filtered out of bottled water as well.

Bottled water companies make massive profits off of selling tap water to consumers.
