Filtered water: the greener, tastier option

brita-recycling-bin.jpgIf you're green enough to avoid buying bottled water but not keen on your local 'blend' of tap water, your best option is filtering the stuff. But aren't all those disposable plastic filters a terrible waste?

Not anymore. Brita filters are fully recyclable and every part of the catridges can be re-purposed. It couldn't be easier to return the filters, which you simply need to take back to the store where you bought them. And for an even greener option that requires no throwing away of parts at all, the Aqua Select. Instead of having removable parts, you simply throw in some special granules that do the job just as well, resulting in 90% less waste. £24.95 at Natural Collection
