昨天读了一篇有关瓶装水的好与坏? 以及瓶装水说明书的短文。ZT 过来与网友分享。 瓶装饮用水在我们日常饮料中已经成了不可缺少的一个组成部分,即方便又“干净”。相信每个人的车里都有一瓶两瓶，或是在车厢后面还有一箱半箱的。尤其是自驾车旅游，野营，瓶装水更是我们长长List里不可缺少的重要必备品之一。 这篇报道对173不同品种的瓶装饮用水的说明书做了调查，包括美国市场上销量最好的十种品牌的瓶装水。文章登载在 USAToday上，全文很长，我ZT一部分过来，网友如果有兴趣，可登录以下网站查看详情。 http://content.usatoday.com/communities/greenhouse/post/2011/01/bottled-water-lack-key-data/1
http://breakingnews.ewg.org/bottled-water-2011-tips-drinking-water Jan 07, 2011 Best and worst bottled waters? Labels reveal little What's in your bottled water? Is it really from a pristine mountain stream or did it come from the next town's tap? A new survey of 173 bottled waters finds that only three -- and only one of the top 10 U.S. brands -- tell customers where the water comes from and how it's purified. Nestlé's Pure Life Purified Water discloses its water source and treatment method on the label, according to the survey by the Washington-based Environmental Working Group (EWG). Yet the nine other top domestic brands – Coca-Cola's Dasani, Pepsi's Aquafina, Crystal Geyser, and – strangely – six other of Nestlé's seven brands – do not. EWG's first Bottled Water Scorecard, released in July 2009, said only two of 188 brands disclosed their product's source, treatment and purity. Its new survey released this week, finds more than half of the brands made either no improvements in transparency or revealed less than in 2009. The report says 18% of bottled water brands, including Publix, Kroger and Harris Teeter store brands, fail to list their sources. It says 32%, including Giant's Acadia Natural Spring Water and CVS' Gold Emblem Natural Spring Water, disclose nothing about the treatment or purity of the water. Bottled water companies are not required by the Food and Drug Administration, which regulates the industry, to publish water quality tests. The Environmental Protection Agency requires water utilities do so for tap water. The EWG report encourages consumers to drink tap water, adding: "It costs far less than bottled water and doesn't come wrapped in plastic waste to clog landfills, clutter streams and rivers and build up in the ocean." EWG offers tips on how to filter tap water for optimal results.
