It's time to finally break the one-use bottled water habit.
The Bobble Water Bottle by Karim Rashid, a reusable water bottle with a built-in carbon filter that removes chlorine and organic contaminants, serves up cleaner- and fresher-tasting tap water.
Made from 100 percent recycled plastic, the brand is BPA- and phthalate-free, and comes in six cool colors.
It's recommended that you change your filter after two months or 40 gallons of water -- about 300 refills. So, now you can keep your kids hydrated when you're out and about without damaging your wallet or the planet.
Available at The Container Store for $9.99.

Inventing a Water Bottle That Refills Itself
This newly invented water bottle refills itself. Imagine a water bottle that refills itself.A man named Deckard Sorensen started a business that has come up with a design for just that, and he hopes it will be on the market by 2014. He got the idea from the Namib Beetle that lives in the desert, and has to get its drinking water from moisture in the air. Sorensen said: "Every morning this beetle climbs to the top of a sand dune, sticks its back to the wind, and drinks 12 percent of its weight".

Noreen said...This is a great idea !! I hate using all those plastic bottles, even though I recycle, I would rather have something like this that I can reuse. I prefer NOT to drink from metal, which is why I have avoided the popular stainless steel bottles. I will definitely buy several of these for on the go water consumption :)
