We recently saw a graphic floating around Twitter (we won't link to it because it's so incredibly misleading) that claimed numerous, inaccurate what-it-called "facts" about bottled water. Of course, anything tabloidy or salacious-sounding certainly gets picked up and passed around, so the graphic went from person to person around the Twittersphere (and likely beyond).
This week, however, Bottled Water Matters presented its own graphic, similar to the misleading one, but filled with facts and sources about bottled water. People have been spreading it throughout the Twittersphere, so much that it even ended up on an Earth blog on Amazon.com.
