Miscellaneous: Water Bottles
Didn't realise there are triangles and numbers under the water bottle, until now. Did you? Used to recycle them, not anymore.
As you know, chemical released by plastic water bottles can cause cancer. (It is not the water that affects you, but the chemical released from the bottle.)
How to avoid: Check the bottom of the bottle. There should be a triangle sign and there will be a number on it. If the number is higher than or equal to 5 - then this bottle is safe to use. Numbers under 5 will release the chemical. For most bottled water, the number is 1. Remember to check and stop reusing those bottles.
Please pass on the information to your friends and family.
