I came across this video earlier today on Stumble Upon. It is a fairly short film about the production of bottled water. The video describes the ways in which bottled water companies get us to buy their products. It also discusses many of the lies they tell us such as, saying our tap water isn't safe and telling us that bottles will be recycled when really, they're just being sent to other parts of the world.
I thought this was really entertaining because I have an interest in the media's influence on consumers. I knew that a lot of what was said about bottled water wasn't true, but I didn't know how many lies they were selling us.
I thought this video was really informative, but it still makes me wonder if people are going to stop drinking bottled water. I feel like people think it is more convenient, so they are going to do it anyways. Hopefully after watching this movie it'll make you think twice before grabbing a $2.00 bottle of Dasini.
