The solution to this is as mentioned above FILTERING or some cases PURIFYING TAP WATER. There are under-sink Micro-filtration or RO systems and stand-alone units as well for the workplace or home. Using these systems allows you to utilize existing tap water and actually improve taste and pureness.

More than just a campaign to Nestle, It's an attempt to spread the word to consumers who will, for example, bring their bottle with them the next time they go to the airport and fill up at the fountain as opposed to spending three dollars on a bottle of Fiji's finest, or whatever. Dig that?

I don't get it, So every now and then Nestle will get a couple of water bottles in the mail. Plus how long before people start sending them in, a few years? I have water bottles that have been around for a decade. Does anyone think there will be such a huge number of swobo water bottles sent in that Nestle would notice? I don't. But if Swobo can make some dough selling the $6 water bottles to the hippies, more power to em.

I applaud your efforts and fully support the use of water bottles. However I question the impact this will have on Nestle. I have been using my current water bottles for several years now, and expect to use them for several more. I hope that by the time people are done with these bottles that Nestle has already changed their practices.

Buying bottled water doesn't make sense for resource or financial reasons. for the cost of buying a few dozen bottles you can install a combined particulate and carbon filter in your kitchen and have clean chemical-taste free water to drink or to refill your own drink bottles. It works for me.

Ah, bottle water makes sense nowhere as long as the funds from buying it are put towards proper water resources. Check out Charity:Water to learn more. http://www.charitywater.org/
Awesome bottle guys!

although i am in full support of this project i believe that also believe that it is also necessary to get city water to stop being fluoridated because this is a major health concern that almost no one is aware of. http://www.tuberose.com/Fluoride.html

Bottled water - does not make sense in the US.
World wide - Many countries all over the world have contaminated tap water.....then there is all of the US soldiers in the fight that cannot trust the local tap water.
