Blog # 10..Bottled water safer than tap water....

Is bottled water safer than tap water? Many people believe that bottled water is safer than tap water(purified and cleaned tap water). Likewise, people also believe industrial bottled water goes through many filtration processes that enhanced bottled water taste and removed bacteria and odor; moreover, filtration removed other possible contaminants such as lead and parasites. Consequently, people ( because of advertisements by bottled water industries ) bottled water is safer than tap water. In contrast, people do not know U.S tap water filtered and also remove bacteria, odor and other harmful elements from public tap water. only difference between tap and bottled water is department of US water safety do not advertise alike bottled water industries. In US tap water during the filtration processes they add chlorine and fluoride and purify it for the best drinking safe water for public. On top of that, according to article "In US tap water is regulated by EPA, while bottled water is regulated by FDA. Besides, EPA requires annul water quality reports; on the other hand, FDA does not requires. As a result, we can easily understand that tap water is much batter than bottled water, buying bottled water is just wasting of money and support pollutants by empty plastic bottled in the world. I have been living in the United States for 7 years and drinking tap water, i never had any problem or disease because of tap water . I believe bottled water industries advertise and inspire people to buy bottled water for making profits. To tell the truth, it is just a rumors that bottled water is better and taste good. We all know that many beverage industries use and sell tap water just using nice labels on the bottle and by fancy and attractive advertisement; moreover, people helping them making more profits and increasing their expenses by buying their products. We should stop buying bottled water and make habit to drinking tap water and save money for a nice future.
