     What are the problems derived from drinking bottled water?

    According to the video, the main problem is there is a lot of oil extraction for
    making plastic bottles and we can see too much the production of plastic
    bottles on the streets, for that reason, in this process lost many energy and
    materials. In consequence, in the environment there are many plastic bottle
    wastes, because the people use a lot of them.
    To prevent this problem, the water bottles were being burned, but a problem of
    contamination in the air was being generated.
     What is the difference between bottled water and drinking water?

    The difference is when the water previously treated, it will process, and delivery
    and sell in a bottle presentation is bottled water. On the other hand, if the water
    is simply, from the tap and the people can drink without any problem is
    drinking water.
     Describe the process involved in manufacturing a plastic bottle.
    Firstly, companies get raw material from nature or others burned bottles, from
    there process, and this is how the new bottles are made. When the bottles of
    water has already made, these will be delivery in shops. After these had been
    used, these will be reused for making new products.
     What happens with the plastic bottles after we throw them away?
    If these bottles they are not degrade on the ground, they are collected and
    burned.
    When these bottles of water end up in landfills, this material expelled will be
    dangerous and contaminant.
     What solutions can be implemented to solve this problem?
    If the government to regulate the purchase of bottle in the consumers, there
    will be less production of this water’s containers.
    If we design awareness campaigns in schools, universities or homes about
    bottled water, people will stop using this product.
     Is this problem common in your community? What does the community do to
    deal with it?
    Yes, this is a very common in my community, however, people have been using
    thermos, and we fill in this containers water, for that reason the use of bottle
    water has reduced.
     Will you drink bottled water again? Why? Why not?
    I don't buy bottled water very often, because I’ve been thinking about it
    and one of the reason is that I reduce amount of plastic waste in addition, I
    prefer use containers, because is cheaper in comparison of bottles of
    water, is a good way for saving money, we can drink water from tap.
     What will you do in the future to reduce the number of plastic bottles used in
    the world?
    I’ve been trying to aware my family, friends and relative about the use the
    plastic, I told them that we have other options for drinking water, for
    example, reuse plastic bottles, use thermos or containers, reduce the
    purchase of this kind of bottles.
