"The only bottled waters we recommend are Highland Spring and Campsie Spring as they have a very clean ethical record, are local to the UK, and score very highly on the Ethical Company Index (especially when compared to other leading brands like Evian, Buxton and Volvic). Highland Spring are also the only bottled water brand to join the Ethical Accreditation scheme. There has been much cynicism about the bottled water industry from some quarters. A report by the Canadian non-governmental Polaris Institute (www.polarisinstitute.org) argued that the big companies pay next to nothing for water they take from rural springs or public water systems, and, after turning water into water through elaborate treatment processes, sell a product that is not as well-regulated as tap water, but is vastly more expensive.

I drink from the tap as my water is very pure. But if I am out of the house I buy Highland Spring, it's bottled just 30 miles away. Have no complaints Posts: 4476 | From: Scotland | Registered: Mar 2006
