Globally some 53 billion gallons of bottled water are consumed creating a $63 billion dollar industry.

One the most peculiar facts is that 40% of this bottled water is actually taken from municipal water sources also known as “tap water”. Another strange element of this puzzle is that far less testing is done on bottled water than on tap water. It turns out that unlike tap water, bottled water isn’t tested for e. coli. More still is the fact that it can be distributed even if it doesn’t meet the quality standards of tap water.

Unlike tap water, bottled water isn’t required to produce quality reports or even provide it’s source.
