Ethical Producers

The bottled water issue is not about health or waste. It's about resources and values. If our water is not clean enough to drink - then let's clean it! Since when was water an FDA issue? Why does the FDA not regulate air? Flavoured drinks are sold on what they have. Bottled water is sold on the suggestion that something is unsafe. Don't ask me to be an ethical consumer, by allowing freedom of choice, when the bottlers, by reflection of their packaging and advertising, are neither ethical producers or marketeers!
