GOOD magazine does a good job covering all things sustainable today. Not surprisingly, they’ve done quite a lot of work in the bottled water category. A handful of the most interesting articles here:

“Get Coke to Disclose its Water Source,” is one that’s close to our hearts. Ah, regulations. And the companies who try to get around them.
Would you drink bottled tap water… from New York City?
If the water’s already as good as the author claims (the source is upstate New York), why do they have to use reverse osmosis to purify it exactly? Tap’dNY.
