The Mission Statement

Some of you may be wondering why someone would go to all the trouble of creating this Facebook page and network of websites to tell you about water bottles.  Here's your answer:

The world is deteriorating, as a result of decisions we have made.  Every year, thousands of pounds of trash are deposited in landfills across the United States.  However, because of recente advances in technology, more and more of this trash can be diverted away from landfills by simple consumer decisions.  The short version: choices you make can save trash from landfills.  People are always looking for simple ways they can help, ways they can be part of the movement.  It doesn't always have to start with the government.  The decisions that we make can add up to have huge impacts.  Take water bottles for instance:

It's estimated that the average American drinks 167 bottles of bottled water each year.  Simply by using a reUSeable water bottlé, you can help save these 167 bottles from going to the landfill.

So why the funky name?  US is capitalized because this movement won't move without the cooperation of US - it's a communal movement.  And why is it a water "bottlé"?  Well, simply because bottlé is Swiss for "stylish metal container", and what doesn't sound cooler when it's in Swiss?
