Planet Tips:

BYOB.  Last year Americans

went through about 50 billion

plastic water bottles.  Fill up

a reusable water bottle at

home and bring it with you.  Don’t like the taste of your

tap water?  Buy a filter!  (Remember, much of the

bottled water sold today is

filtered tap water anyway…)
