The virtual fuel content of bottled water (in case anyone needed reminding)

"Energy used for production and marketing of a 0.5L, or 500cc (17oz) bottle: 34.58MJ [equivalent to 1.017L of gasoline or 2.35kg of CO2 emissions.]"

The new trend in water fashion is to carry around a $30 dollar stainless steel water bottle preferably in a customized sling. Filled from the water filter at home or the filtered-cooled tap at the gym.

All, and I do mean all, the hot and trendy ladies at the pricier gyms carry them as well as a growing number of road-racing cyclists. Whatever the hot yoga mamas and tour-de-france wannabees in California do the rest or the nation is soon to follow.

We got the rest of you wearing crocs for dogs sake.

Put the Carbon Back
