A Filtering Water Bottle That’s GOOD for the Environment

If you like the taste of bottled water, but dislike the cost and waste, Clear2o, a definitively Green company, offers an economically-efficient and environmentally-friendly solution.

The Clear2Go water bottle has a filter under the mouthpiece, so it filters tap water as you drink.  It can remove 99% of microbial cysts (bacteria), and reduces chlorine taste and odor.  The bottle can hold about 24oz, though the filter takes up some room inside.  The filter does make the bottle slightly heavier, but it does not make drinking any harder than with an average sports bottle. You will need to replace the filter about every 2 months ($11.99 for a two-pack), but the investment will save you in the long run.

Best of all, using this water bottle is good for the environment.  Clear2o estimates that one filter will clean 100 gallons of water, the equivalent of keeping 757 water bottles out of landfills. And celebs love it too - as a part of the Tony Award's new initiative to go green, the Clear2Go was a 2009 Tony gift basket item.

Refillable water bottles with filter are the best way to save money and help the environment. They are the best alternatives to buying bottled water which has been shown not to be safer than tap water.
