Bottled Water Vs. Tap

               Our final project                     

Kids came to our table during recess and tried each kind of water. Then they went to vote for their favorite. At another table the poll takers were ready with a Google Form to input their decision. 

After that, our interviewers and video crew were there to find out what they thought of the experiment.

The whole day was a success, everyone followed through with their jobs, and we had some great data to add to our debate. See our results below. We were not surprised that Fiji came in first place, but we were surprised that tap water and Crystal Geyser were so close. When we were researching, we saw that Crystal Geiser is really just filtered tap water, but the water in our town is not good at all! 

But is it worth the money and the waste to purchase all those bottles? Many in our class came to the conclusion that we could use our own filters, like Brita, and our own containers for drinking water. That way, we would save money and help reduce garbage.
