I want a good grade so I have to do this. So for my DOT project, I’m going to use a reusable water bottle instead of using the cheap water bottle that can’t be reused.
Tons of plastic goes to the ocean and it takes thousands years to decompose plastic.
One reason that I chose to use a reusable water bottle is because it was one of the easiest things to do for the DOT project. Another reason is that I realize that I use a lot so I want to use less plastic then I normally would use.
“ Plastic bottles make up a large proportion of plastic waste, and only about one in five bottles are properly recycled.”(Daily Infographic)
Oil is used to create water bottles in the US. Bottled water is not better than tap water. Some water bottles have bad chemicals for example BPA. BPA can be very harmful for anyone's health.
Using a reusable water bottle is beneficial because it is cheaper because you wont be buying water bottles.
“Recent studies have shown that Americans use on average 50 billion water bottles each year and climbing, though only recycle 23% of the plastic bottles when finished.”(Sustainable Earth)
If you use a reusable water bottle u can save the world and your self.
SAVE THE WORLD! USE A WATER BOTTLE!
