One of the guys at work was taking out the trash the other day and one of the massive garbage bags was that full of nothing but coffee pods. It got me thinking about how terrible we are to the environment and the earth. Now, imagine the plastic bottles that make it to the landfills instead of recycling plants? A lot of cities across North America are starting to take action but there is always something more we can do as a community. Boycotting big companies like Nestle would be ideal but you need large numbers of people to take action. Instead, perhaps start with what you and your family & friends can do. The WELLY Water Bottle is a great example.
The WELLY Water Bottle is not only a sleek looking bottle but it purifies water as you drink out of the bottle which features a unique filter made from activated coconut shell carbon that will remove particulates, chlorine, and unpleasant odors and tastes. Despite what some CEOs of major bottled water companies think, access to clean water is a human right. When you purchase WELLY, the company will make a donation from the sale of each WELLY bottle and filter sold to charity: water. This particular organization works around the world to bring clean and safe drinking water to people in developing nations.
One WELLY filter is equivalent to 300 plastic water bottles! That’s a pretty impressive number. The filters are made from sustainable grown coconut shells which are known as the most effective method for water filtration. The panels which are used to control the water flow are also made from sustainable harvested bamboo. Since the bottle filters the water as you drink, you can even put ice cubes in the bottle and you’ll be enjoying chilled, filtered water.
The WELLY Water Bottle is available for $35. More information is available on the WELLY Bottle website.
