Children Exposed to Levels of Pesticide Far Higher Than EPA’s Level of Concern

Wednesday, September 22nd, 2010

Twenty five years ago in the state of Louisiana, more than 2,000 people were poisoned by Aldicarb, a highly toxic pesticide widely used in agriculture.  Local officials called for a ban on the chemical.  25 years later; however, action has finally been taken.  What was the straw that finally broke this camel’s back?  New EPA documents showing that children under the age of five can ingest levels of the pesticide through food and water that exceed levels the agency considers safe. For infants, consumption of aldicarb residue can reach 800 percent higher than the EPA’s level of concern for health effects.  Aldicarb has mainly been linked to neurological, endocrine, immune, and developmental effects.

Thankfully, we can find comfort in knowing that we can eliminate or greatly reduce pesticides from drinking water in our very own home!  New Wave’s Premium 10 Stage Drinking Water Filter is the ideal and economical way to rid pesticides and contaminants from your drinking water.  The 4 inch 0.5 Sub micron fine mesh coconut shell carbon (G.A.C.) located inside the filter creates a solid barrier against organisms larger than one micron. G.A.C. has long been accepted as the premier cost effective way to remove organic contaminants including chlorine, pesticides, herbicides, arsenic, mercury and trihalomethanes. Learn more about what this amazing filter is capable of!

Kick Your Plastic Habbit

Thursday, September 16th, 2010

HuffingtonPost.com recently featured an article describing 7 ways that people can rid plastic from their lives.  It’s no surprise that plastic water bottles were discussed in depth.  Plastic bottles of water are a very expensive way to buy something that is practically free but this is not the only problem.  They have quite a serious impact on the environment too.  The raw materials needed, the energy for production and transport used and the non-biodegradable waste produced all cause problems.

New Wave Enviro is at the forefrunt of the world’s goal to eliminate plastic water bottles, by being one of the main providers of BPA-free, forever reusable drinking water bottles.  Of course, it is essential not to forget that filtering and bottling your own water ensures the quality of what you are drinking.  It is important to store your filtered water in New Wave’s non-leaching, non-porous bottles to keep it free of unwanted chemicals and contaminants.

Stainless Steel Water Bottle Reviews

Monday, September 13th, 2010

Below are some reviews from very satisfied customers who purchased New Wave Enviro’s 600 ml seriously safe stainless steel drinking water bottles:

“NOW, [my husband] takes his New Wave Enviro bottle to work every day and has conceeded that once again, the wife knows best. “It was a really good idea” was finally heard from his mouth. I had been shopping for stainless steel water bottles for quite awhile but was put off by the high prices, this was a great deal and I’m very pleased with them. This was the most reasonable price I found and the bottle is of good quality.”

“We have found these bottles to be durable and the safest alternative to plastic bottles (which can leach chemicals) and aluminum bottles (which can leach aluminum). They are a great size and easy to use.”

“I bought this to go on a camping trip with the Girl Scouts and I love it! The color is a really shiny red and the bottle holds enough water to be satisfying without being bulky or heavy.  It’s tough while still being pretty.”

“Good value, wonderful colors, easy to drink out of and I have experienced no leaking. I would definitely buy them again.”

“With all the scare on plastic water bottles, I went looking for a good stainless steel water bottle. This one is a beautiful green and at a fabulous price! It works great and really keeps the water cold without the worry of contamination.”

Thank you for your comments!

Bottled Water: Glorified Tap Water

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010

You may recall in the blog post dated August 14th, 2010 that one-time use water bottle sales have been declining over the past few years.  Sales dropped 1% in 2008 and then decreased another 2.5% in 2009, compared to double-digit growth in the early 2000’s.  As profits have been declining in a shrinking market, it is no surprise that bottled water companies have tried to cut costs. One way the industry has done this is to use municipal tap water.  Yuk!

It is a safe bet to say that, by the end of 2010, more than 50% of one-time use plastic water bottles sold in stores will be repackaged public water.   There is no doubt that the value received from drinking bottled water is getting weaker every year.  It may be at the point where there is no value at all!

The true value, of course, is achieved from getting a filter and bottling your water at home with a forever reusable bottle.  Not only will you save massive amounts of money, but the water you drink will be pure and toxin-free, and much safer than what the bottled water companies are providing you with.  Check out New Wave’s selection of filters and Economical drinking water bottles at www.newwaveenviro.com.


The Dangers of One-Time Use Water Bottles

Monday, September 6th, 2010

The State of New York recently placed a 5-cent deposit on bottled water, implying that New York consumers will pay $2 more for a 24-pack of water.  This may be the nudge that many people need to get over their dependency on bottled water and switch to healthier solutions.

According to an article from treehugger.com titled “A World of Reasons to Ditch Bottled Water,” approximately 1.5 million barrels of oil, enough to run 100,000 cars for a whole year, are used to make plastic water bottles, which is one of the reasons why a gallon of bottled water costs 10,000 times more than a gallon of tap water.

The issue shouldn’t just be about the extra cost, but more about your health and the welfare of our planet.  Plastic is essentially no better for us than junk food.  According to Nature Solutions Magazine, 10 brands of water bottles have been found to contain 38 contaminants including bacteria, acetaminophen, fertilizer, solvents and strontium, a radioactive element.  Bottled water is not regulated by the government like tap water is.  So chances are your unfiltered tap water is cleaner than the bottled water you are drinking.

It is imperative that you invest in a New Wave Premium 10 Stage Water Filter to ensure that your water is pure and contaminant-free.  Want the convenient aspect of bottled water?  You can purchase one of New Wave’s BPA free Seriously Safe Stainless Steel drinking water bottles.  That way, any water you and your family consume in and out of the house will be purified and healthy for you and the environment!
