Tapped

Check this documentary out - available through Netflix. Recommended to me by quite a few people - gives you a great insight into the bottled water industry. Especially interesting to us "Maniacs" (that goes for you seasonal visitors too!!) considering the Poland Spring movement, fueled by the Nestle Corp. that has come into the Fryeburg community and helped themselves to billions of gallons of our water. A must see!

Here's the trailer link:

Another example of corporate larceny. Water theft by corporations is commonplace worldwide. Here in Maine/NH the fuckers have bought out water rights in a dozen communities. A few communities have successfully fought back, but it costs big money to do so, and you know who has the deepest pockets. Drinking that shit they put in plastic bottles just encourages the bastards. Try tap water. Just let it sit overnight so the chlorine evaporates and the dirt and toxic impurities settle to the bottom. Then filter x3 and enjoy.

watched it. lovely. yet another end of the world as we know it scenario.

i'd gotten wind of most of that info over the last couple years; now i know where it came from and why we gave up the wee plastic bottles a while back.

loved the two guys defending the bottled water industry. could they have been any stupider?

thanks again for sharing. what else you got?
