    Nowadaysit is common to see 5-gallon bottles of water being sent to homes. Supermarket  shelves are filled with all kinds of bottled water from simple plastic bottles containing “pure spring water” to expensive foreign types of mineral water in glass bottles. In Europebottled water is as popular as soft drinks are in the USAPeople are not only interested in the different choices of drinksbut also in the taste of bottled water and its health value.

    All bottled water must list the content of the water on the bottle. Some companies mix minerals together to give the water a better tasteBut the term mineral water is misleading because an water―except specially purified water―contains minerals. Law must be made to tell people clearly what kind of water people are exactly buyingspring water, mineral water, or purified waterFor example“spring water” will have to come from the underground spring.

    Many people choose bottled water over tap waterbecause they doubt the safety of public drinking waterSome people worry about city water suppliesWe need to pay close attention to the cleanliness of our drinking waterThe government should be responsible for tap water quality. It should be tested and checked regularly

    Keep in mind that bottled water is expensiveIn many rasesyou are paying for water that is not much different from tap waterIf you are not sure of the safety of your tap watterhave it  testedA local health department can be of serviceCompared with the cost of bottled waterthe testing cost will be less expensiveLetting cold water run for a minute or so before taking a drink or using it in preparing a meal is a good way to limit possible water pollution, especially if the water has been off for an hour or more
