This is enough to fuel more than 1 million U.S. cars for a year. It results in Prostate and breast cancer, genital abnormalities in male babies, metabolic disorders including insulin-resistant diabetes and neuro behavioral problems.

FACTS & FIGURES 50 billion water bottles are consumed every year in which 30 billion are from U.S. 90% of the cost of water bottle is due to the bottle itself. Consumes hundreds of years to decompose. 38 million plastic water bottles go to the dump per year in America. 80% of plastic bottles are not recycled
