What Happens To All Those Water Bottles?
The independent filmmaker, Neil LaBute, once said, “We live in a disposable society. It’s easier to throw things out than to fix them. We even give it a name – we call it recycling.” Okay, maybe he was being a bit cynical about the “flimsiness” of our current culture, but some say this quote is ‘spot on.’ Plastic water bottles might be the perfect example of this. I’ve often wondered if people in other countries are just as wasteful with something as routine as drinking water, or if they’ve just found it easier to recycle.
