HereToday asks:Do you drink bottled water in the large five-gallon dispensers?

right here in London Town. You can't be really green and drink bottled water unless as in Atula's case you have no choice due to the quality. All that plastic!

I fill up jugs and keep in the fridge if iwant it really cold. Purity is not a problem for tap water anywhere in the UK.

In the place we live in the water is not recommended for drinking purposes as it is very salty so we get huge 20 litre cans delivered every few days as per the requirement and use that for drinking.

I live in a city with excellent drinking water quality so I don't even use a Brita filter. What I do though is keep water in a glass jug in the fridge when I crave really cold water or just stock up on ice cubes.

I drink the small 16 ounce bottles of water. Though I use tap water to make coffee, I never drink a glass of it by itself. I don't like the taste.

I agree with a majority of the answers, the tap water in my area is actually better than most bottled waters. A lot of the companies that make bottled water(Coke-a-cola and Pepsi included) use regular tap water from their local sources and filter it further unnecessarily. which uses more electricity. as well as producing more waste through the formation of the plastic bottles.(while the bottles may be recyclable the tops are not) Also, the area that I live in while having recycling laws for cans and bottles excludes water and juice bottles because they are not carbonated. I see a lot of these bottles lying around because people can't get any money back from recycling..its really a shame.
