    I prefer just getting a 1 gallon jug. Much less plastic and should do fine in those “just in case” times. Multiple plastic bottles is going to have a much higher concentration of leached chemicals. Although water is generally not much of a concern in this part of the northwest so just keeping a little bit is generally fine.

    The people I see are generally buying a couple cases are definitely doing it for personal use. They usually have their kids with them so it’s likely not for a business.

    Plastic water bottles are the number one litter that I find when picking up garbage in the neighborhood. I also see many crushed pretty small vertically which sends odd to me. Why crush it if you are going to toss it? And why crush it the more difficult way? Is it possibly a drug use thing?

      I’m with you, I judge them too. Those douchbags gave us the great Pacific Garbage Patch and microplastocs in our brains
