Reliable drinking water is a well-known issue. Whether it's the struggle of a developing nation or the quality of water in urbanized areas, many of us are familiar with and touched by the issues surrounding water quality.

Fast Company has a sobering article on the environment impact of the bottled water industry, from source to landfill.
