All youuu neeeed is love! All you neeed is loooooove! Love! Love is all you neeeed! All I need is Miss. Eviaaaan! Oh! You scared me! No need to spy on me!
Well, good morning to you as weel my lovely friends!
It is a nice sunny day outside! Well, not that it makes any difference for me, since I am stuck in the superstore. No wait, the supermarket! Well I don’t really know what they call it super, since its not that super to me…It is cold all the time, the lights are to strong and well people come and look at us through the glass…they stare, point and stare some more. Some of people actually are nice they open the door and pick me up! Boy does it tickle, but at least I feel warm for a couple of seconds. After reading the paper that is all around my tummy, they exchange looks, nod and usually but my right back on the shelf. This is starting to happen way too often lately. Does nobody want me anymore? Maybe because I have been here a while now and I am not the cutest one anymore. I want to get adopted I am nice!! Anyone out there?!!!
“You silly silly young boy! It has nothing to do with you not being the cute one anymore!” said Mrs. Goldendiamondy with a smear. Why does she always have to know the secret to everything! She quickly explained, that the problem is that people don’t like plastic water bottles anymore. According to miss know-it-all, more than 60 cities in the USA have banned the expenditure of tax dollars on other bottles like me. Everyone is now convinced that we are terribly bad for the environment and we get discarded, ruining the “natural habitat” of animals and the sea creatures. What is a “natural habitat”?? It sure sounds like a funny word! Is it a fancy grown-up way to say “home”? Well, then I guess my “natural habitat” is the cold fridge of the superstore! Nobody is ruining my habitat; I sure don’t want to disturb birds, and fish and bears by entering their homes uninvited. Mrs.Goldendiamondy even told me that water is heavy and its transportation internationally uses a lot of energy that could be saved to serve more useful purposes. She even sounded very smart and cool when she told me with nonchalance that every year, the bottled water industry can generate around 30 000 tonnes of carbon dioxide only in transportation! Do you even realize how much 30 000 tonnes means? Well, I can’t this is why I am convinced it is super gigantic. Bigger than the supermarket, bigger than the city! Bigger than the earth?! I still have to figure that out but anyways that it is a lot of carbon dixide. I am not completely sure I understand what that long word carbondixide means, it probably is something for grown-ups, but it sure does sound important.
Well thank god I have Miss Evian to keep me company and keep me laughing all day long. She is very nice and most of all she is the prettiest plastic water bottle I have ever seen in my entire short life. This is why, I must confess, if you promise you won’t tell anyone, I am kind of happy that customers visiting the superstore are putting us back on the shelves; leaving me and Evian alone! I am kind of happy people are realizing the truth, the fact that they can save money, drinking fresh cold water from the tap in order to try to lower down the number of close to 30 million plastic bottles, daily abandoned in landfills where they are left to rot alone for the next thousand years. Oh my liquid heart would break at the thought of empty miss Evian, cold and alone in a landfill for the next hundred years to come…. Thank god customers are slowly waking up…!
