How many of us drink bottled water and throw the plastic bottle into the recycling.. hopefully… without every checking out its bottom? Perhaps if we did we might drink out of a glass bottle!

Quite recently the BBC announced that a Blue Planet spin-off series is on the way…How exciting is that? I loved the 2017 series of the Blue Planet and it was popular worldwide…
Blue Planet UK is a week-long documentary series produced by BBC Studio’s Natural History Unit, the team behind Blue Planet and Blue Planet II.

I can live without straws of any kind – used to be only toddlers needed straws and kids were so happy when told they were big enough to not use them …but we weren’t allowed to eat/drink when traveling in cars growing up HAHA

I agree with you.. I have not used a plastic bag in a supermarket for at least 10 years.. They were very ahead of this in Spain and went to re-usable a long time ago…

Very nice article Carol. Yes, I do check out the toxicity level of the bottles. We don’t use plastic bottles for drinking water especially if we leave the bottles in the car and the bottles get hot. We use metal bottles instead. ❤
