In short, it says: To the contrary, our tests strongly indicate that the purity of bottled water cannot be trusted. Given the industry’s refusal to make available data to support their claims of superiority, consumer confidence in the purity of bottled water is simply not justified.

Our report contains a safe drinking water guide to help sort it all out: http://www.ewg.org/node/27196

If you’re concerned about your tapwater, we created a database for many water systems around the country – check yours: http://www.ewg.org/tapwater/yourwater/

I was talking with someone this week who said she bought her baby an attachment for a water bottle that allows her to drink the water right from the disposable container! Great!!! Let’s start them really young with very bad habit! Makes me so mad!!!
