Hold Nalgene Accountable

First and foremost, I have to point out that almost anything that you can re-use is better then buying bottled water, both for your pocket and for en environment. However, there are multiple reasons not to buy a Nalgene reusable water bottle. For starters, it has been shown that toxic chemicals leech out of the bottle and into the water over time, and especially when it is washed in the dishwasher or with hot water. You can follow the link on the other reviews on this webpage to learn more about that.

The worst part of Nalgene though is that they are not a small environmentally friendly water bottle company, but rather the trade name for the Nalge Company, which is in turn a subsidiary of the Sybron Internation Corporation. The Nalge Company specializes in manufacturing laboratory equipment. the same company that sells water bottles to save the planet is also selling cages to hold rabbits in place while they are injected with various drugs.

As much as I love my Nalgene bottle, I am switching over until they stop making cages for animals!
