More choices in safer drinking water ow available for business and consumers as they turn away from single-use plastic water bottles, says Bengt Rittri, Bluewater founder and CEO.
“We know that micro-plastics are in the food we eat, the air we breathe, and the water we drink, yet the evidence the particles and the chemicals they contain are in our blood is frankly shocking,” said Bengt Rittri.
"Bluewater has put ending the need for single use plastic bottles at the very heart of its business mission and innovating a unique ecosphere with its water purifiers and premium re-useable bottles designed to help consumers quit single-use plastic bottles,” said Haleh Nia, Chief Transformation Officer.
“The rocketing evidence of microplastic pollution underlines the urgent need for more detailed research into the environmental and health threats posed by these plastics."
“The problem is that we still don’t know what damage the chemicals in the microplastic are doing to our health and wellbeing,” says Bluewater founder, CEO, and environmental entrepreneur Bengt Rittri.
“Most single-use plastic bottles of water end up in oceans and landfills where they break down into chemical-leaching microplastics that threaten human health and wellbeing by disrupting human hormones,” says Bluewater founder and CEO Bengt Rittri

"Unless there are immediate, rapid and large-scale reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, limiting warming to close to 1.5°C or even 2°C will be beyond reach, which is shocking, scary and a huge wake-up call."
"Microplastic pollution is something that Bluewater has been warning against for a number of years now as we strive to innovate water purifier solutions to remove chemical and other contamination threats from the water we drink from our taps as well as end the need for single use plastic bottles, the majority of which end up being dumped in our oceans or landfill."
