Comments on: Fiji Water To Go ‘Carbon Negative’ http://www.environmentalleader.com/2007/11/07/fiji-water-to-go-carbon-negative/ The Executive's Daily Green Briefing Mon, 23 Nov 2009 21:16:51 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Fred http://www.environmentalleader.com/2007/11/07/fiji-water-to-go-carbon-negative/comment-page-1/#comment-20641 Fred Mon, 12 Nov 2007 18:18:40 +0000 http://www.environmentalleader.com/2007/11/07/fiji-water-to-go-carbon-negative/#comment-20641 This is just Fiji answering Icelandic Glacial on their Carbon Neutrality, being from Iceland where all electricity is Green (Geothermal or Hydroelectricity) they don't pollute in that sense. And they have already been certfied by the CarbonNeutral company, and won awards for their initiatives. Fiji will reap benefits on saying that they are going to try to go Carbon Negative by 2010, which they obviously cant as they will need to offset their Diesel Generators. The only reason why Icelandic can go carbon neutral and not eat up all their margins is due to Iceland being Green!! http://www.icelandicglacial.com/news/nr/117 latest award that Icelandic won.

Anyone who drinks the water is part of the problem!

Once the carbon is out of the tail pipe there is no putting it back in. People need to boycott Fiji water and then buy a filter and reusable bottle. Its that simple. Get a point of use water purification system and you can make a difference!
