while it's clear the flouride conspiracy is not grounded in any facts, the pollution and waste and danger from plastic water bottles is clear & profound-
-millions of barrels of oil are used in making plastic water bottles
-50 billion plastic water bottles are thrown away each year, the don't biodegrade.
-billions of plastic water bottles are shipped globally adding to the air pollution problem
-Studies have shown that chemicals called phthalates, which are known to disrupt testosterone and other hormones, can leach into bottled water over time. One study found that water that had been stored for 10 weeks in plastic bottles contained phthalates, suggesting that the chemicals could be coming from the plastic cap or liner. Although there are regulatory standards limiting phthalates in tap water, there are no legal limits for phthalates in bottled water -- the bottled water industry waged a successful campaign opposing the FDA proposal to set a legal limit for these chemicals!
