Re:newal Tries to Make Bottled Water Look Better With Plant-Based Packing
The practice of using bottled water against tap water may not really be the best one, but if you have to rely on bottled water, why not go for something that’s slightly more friendlier to the environment. That is what appears to be the premise of renewal “premium spring water.”
Renewal water debuted at the Green Products Expo in New York, and features a bottle and label made from plant based materials. While common plastic bottles have their origins in crude oil, and don’t really lend themselves to biodegrading, the bioplastic used by renewal is easier to recycle and biodegradable.
Considering the sheer amount of plastic waste from bottled water that lands up in landfills every year, renewal presents an alternative that is a lot better. Of course, not likely as good as moving to tap water, but still better than sticking to those non-biodegradable bottles that just create mounds of plastic waste.
Alternatives to standare PETE plastic are good ideas. The ENSO biodegradable is an answer to the billions of bottles that are tossed into a landfill each year. The ENSO bottle will biodegrade leaving behind biogases which are being collected and used to produce clean energy.

I was just down in Florida and found this product on the shelf in a 7eleven and was blown away by the idea behind the bottle… not to mention that it taste better than the Fiji water that I usually drink. Why aren’t more people demanding that this production process become the standard when bottling water??? I have not seen this before and will be keeping an eye out for it back home.
