The focus on bottled water being a catastrophe is far too cynical. Clean water is good for you, everyone should drink it, to call bottled water drinkers the new smokers is ridiculous. Coke is providing a sustainable solution to the increasing market of bottled products and they should be congratulated. I only hope that they will use 100% plant material sooner rather than later and other manufactures will follow suit quickly.
