The Problem with Single-Use Plastic Bottles
Have you noticed the explosion in the use of disposable water bottles over the past decade? With this rise, the plastic waste crisis has escalated too. We’re using a staggering one million plastic bottles every minute. Sadly, most of these bottles end up in landfills or oceans, adding to an environmental crisis that experts say rivals climate change. In fact, plastic bottle usage is expected to rise by 20% in the next ten years.
What’s more shocking? Plastic bottles take up to 1,000 years to break down, and only 23% are recycled. The rest continue polluting our planet.
It’s Time to Rethink & Reuse!
By choosing a reusable water bottle, like those from our Contigo water bottle collection, you’re helping reduce waste and make a real impact. Just one reusable bottle can save an average of 217 plastic bottles from ending up in landfills each year. Now, imagine if you encouraged a friend to join you—and they encouraged one of their friends. The positive impact would ripple out, creating a meaningful change.
