Anti Bottled Water Story!!!!!!!!!!!

The International Bottled Water Association is saying that Annie Leonard's video" The Story of Bottled Water" is giving false information. One of Annie's statements"Americans buy more than 500 million bottles of the stuff every week. It's second only to soda in popularity, and some industry analysts believe that by next year water will become the most-purchased beverage in the country"is said it may actually be a fact. But the I.B.W.A is accusing her of giving false information. i.e. She says the bottled water companies are scaring us, seducing us and misleading us. However most of her statements are actually true. i.e In the video there are blind taste testing surveys and they're saying that the tap water tastes alot better than bottled water. Also in the video she says that bottled water is less regulated than tap. But the I.B.W.A fights back by saying bottled water bottles are 100% recyclable and are the nations most recycled containers. I would have to say I'm on Annie's side. Check out the video and let me know what you think. go to youtube and type in the story of bottled water.
