Down To Earth

Home water filters

Photobucket Daily Tip # 349 We’re not sure what you’ve heard about DTE but we love water. Love to swim. Love to gaze at. Love Aquaman. Love to conserve. And we love to drink water…especially from the faucet!!! Wait. No. They’re crazy, you say. Here’s the rub folks: it’s worth purchasing a home water filter to eliminate contaminants since bottled water is not necessarily cleaner. Actually, 40 percent of bottled water comes from a city water system. And yeah, let’s not forget that waste thing: 1.5 million tons of plastic are expended in the bottling of 89 billion liters of water each year.
