Drink filtered tap water instead of bottled water. Not only is filtered tap water healthier for your body and better for the environment (refer to Green FAQ), it is a lot cheaper. The average cost of a water bottle is about a dollar or more, and the price of tap water in a bottle amount is a tiny fraction of the price. If you think tap water “tastes weird,” keep drinking it and I promise you will get used to it. I used to feel the same way about tap water and now I think bottle water tastes flat and is not refreshing whatsoever. Buy a Brita water filter and keep that in your dorm/apartment. It will generally be under $20 depending on what size you get and within about twenty uses it will pay itself off. This is honestly the easiest and the best way to save the environment and save a lot of money. Being EGOlogical has never been easier!
ok so not that I'm encouraging this but I was thinking in Las Vegas since we are re-credited for the water that empties into the wash and back into Lake Mead, and bottled water usually comes from other places, if there was some way to get it cheap and env. friendly bottled water it might almost be good for our location! ...in a way, I haven't fully thought this out

Yes that would be awesome! Definitely since it is tough fighting over the water here in the DESERT! I think you should invent it :D
