Bottled water affects the global ecosystem

According to a new study by the Institute of Earth Policy (US), the consumption of bottled water has more than doubled in the last 6 years and is seriously affecting the global ecosystem.

The study results show that after using bottled water, all types of water bottles that are discarded pose a risk to the environment because water bottles are often made of plastic that is difficult to decompose. According to the researchers, it takes up to 1,000 years, the current number of garbage bottles can decompose after being buried in the ground.

According to the results of the study, the development of the bottled water industry has caused water shortages in some areas, including India, where Coca Cola's mineral water and soft drinks production is made. has caused more than 50 villages to lack drinking water.
