The International Bottled Water Association (IBWA) today issued the following statement concerning attempts to restrict consumer access to bottled water in America's national parks. "Efforts to eliminate or reduce access to bottled water in our national parks will force consumers to choose less healthy drink options that have more packaging, more additives (e.g., sugar, caffeine), and greater environmental impacts than bottled water. In fact, research shows that if bottled water isn't available, 63 percent of people will choose soda or another sugared drink - not tap water. We expect the same consumer response if access to bottled water is restricted in our national parks. And such a response will therefore not likely reduce the presence of plastic bottles within the recycling streams of our national parks. The Healthy Consumer Choice In today's on-the-go society, most of what we drink comes in a package. Consumers choose bottled water for several reasons, including its refreshing taste, reliable quality, zero calories and additives, and convenience. In fact, since 1998, approximately 73 percent of the growth in bottled water consumption has come from people switching from carbonated soft drinks, juices, and milk to bottled water. Banning or restricting access to bottled water in the marketplace, including within national parks, directly impacts the right of people to choose the healthiest beverage on the shelf. And for many, bottled water is a critical alternative to other packaged beverages, which are often less healthy. Bottled water must therefore be available wherever packaged beverages are sold. According to the Institute of Medicine and the American Journal of Preventative Medicine, two-thirds of American adults are overweight with one-third of those individuals being obese and over the last 30 years, children's obesity rates have climbed from 5 percent to 17 percent. Drinking zero-calorie beverages, such as water, instead of sugary dri

Bottled water companies continue to be concerned about the environment and are working to increase consumer recycling, the International Bottled Water Association (IBWA) said today.

The results of a second benchmarking study released today by the International Bottled Water Association (IBWA) show that the amount of water and energy used to produce bottled water products in North America is still less than all other types of packaged beverages. On average, 1.32 liters of water (including the liter of water consumed) and 0.24 mega joules of energy are used to produce 1 liter of finished bottled water.1

Yale Scientist Refutes Study on Bottled Water Facts Issued By Environmental Working Group One of the nation's leading microbiologists, Dr. Stephen Edberg, professor in the Department of Laboratory Medicine and Internal Medicine at the Yale University School of Medicine, and the director of the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory at the Yale-New Haven Hospital, strongly refuted today the Environmental Working Group's study on bottled water quality, citing the study's flawed methodology and lack of sound science. Addressing the study's findings which were released yesterday, Dr. Edberg said, "The Environmental Working Group's study on bottled water is troubling for both its lack of acknowledgement of scientifically based history and for failing to conduct controlled scientific experiments. Its conclusions unduly confuse consumers through faulty methodologies and unsubstantiated findings."

As part of the ongoing relief efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey, the bottled water industry is playing a vital role by providing millions of bottles of clean, safe drinking water to those in need in Houston and along the Gulf Coast. This is being done through direct donations, giving water to charitable organizations, and contracts with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). "As with past disasters, the International Bottled Water Association's member bottlers and distributors began responding, some even before the hurricane made landfall, to provide substantial supplies of bottled water to those affected," said Bob Hirst, IBWA vice president of education, science, and technical relations.
