I watched part of the NBC’s Biggest Loser last night.  They did a nice segment on “going green” and their involvement with FilterforGood, an effort spearheaded by Brita  and Nalgene to reduce the number of water bottles going to landfills.  They reported that 32,130 plastic water bottles have been saved this season!  An amazing number and really shows that each person can make a difference - add those up and we get big change!

“Brita and Nalgene have teamed up to create the FilterForGood pledge. It’s a simple commitment to reduce your personal waste by giving up bottled water, even if it’s just a few days each week. Together, filtered water and a reusable bottle are an ideal solution for going green at home and on the go. It’s an easy change that can make a big difference.”
