> There are 750 million people around the world who don't have access to clean water.

What does that have to do with bottled water, again?

In fact, isn't bottled water one of those things we typically send in aid to people with access to clean drinking water?




plastic bottle and their transportation generate a lot of pollution, compared to local mecanisms (purification, desalinisation, etc..)


Eliminating bottled water completely won't provide any water to the people that don't have it. It's an appeal to emotion.
