I try my best to not buy bottled water these days. As it turns out, the one brand that I did purchase from time to time has some pretty bad politics at play. NYC tap water happens to be some of the best available water in the whole country and I’ve been using one of the popular Swiss brand Sigg bottles for well over a year now. I consciously chose their bottles to avoid the leaching issues associated with reusing plastic and to support an eco-friendly endeavour. So I was rather annoyed to learn that Sigg has some pretty bad health related problems as well. Who knew getting safe clean water in the developed world was so hard?
