Only plastic bottles that companies cannot reuse would be banned.

Geeze.....am I the only one here old enough to remember when BOTTLES were made out of glass?
It is the ABUNDANCE of littering, non-bio-degradable PLASTIC that is used to manufacture these ubiquitous 'bottles'....that is at issue, here.
AND YES! As someone mentioned, the very style of marketing, of....AHEM....water has been clever, because PEOPLE 'buy'' into the hype.
Anyone care to go out, to your local Supermarket, and do some math?
Go, and take your calculator. Scan the shelves, note the prices, and the relative sizes.
You will (hopefully) be both amazed, and shocked, and disgusted by the findings. WE PAY MORE FOR WATER, than for gasoline (petrol), just because of the packaging, and marketing efforts!!!
Oh, and BTW....WATER is not the only liquid marketed and sold in plastic bottles.....

For the people who think that this is good thing, I hope you enjoy your tap water filled with toxins and chemicals and when you get cancer in 20 years dont come back on here and tell me that I was right because I already told you to avoid the tap
