We need to come up with a cool nickname for David Suzuki. Suzookster? Does that work? Either way, it’s a well known fact that we love the man and all that he does. And without any further delay, here is his latest brain wave via CBC News…

I think in Canada it’s absolutely disgusting that people are so uncertain about their water that we buy it, paying more for bottled water than we do for gasoline. It’s nuts to be shipping water all the way across the planet, and us — because we’re so bloody wealthy — we’re willing to pay for that water because it comes from France. I don’t believe for a minute that French water is better than Canadian water. I think that we’ve got to drink the water that comes out of our taps, and if we don’t trust it, we ought to be raising hell about that.

Not only does bottled water lead to unbelievable pollution — with old bottles lying all over the place — but plastic has chemicals in it. Plastics are ubiquitous. I don’t believe that plastics are not involved in a great deal of the health problems that we face today.
