Be Vapur or be square

Check out this super cool, go green product! I heard about it from my eco-chic friend Jennifer last week and had to share it with you.

"Vapur is the first flexible water bottle designed to fit in your pocket, purse, backpack or briefcase. Unlike rigid water bottles that are full of hot air when empty, Vapur can be rolled, folded or flattened and tucked away. This means it goes more places and fits in tighter spaces than any other bottle."

You all know how much I love SIGG water bottles, but this product looks awesome! I love that you can roll it up to store it when you are done. It seems perfect to take on an airplane or in the car. For more information on Vapur products, check out their Web site at http://vapur.us/home.php. Each water bottle is "made from ultra-durable, FDA-approved, BPA-free polymer." That is a mouthful, but this means that there is not any chemicals in the product that could harm your body. You can even freeze them!
And they get even cooler..."Vapur flexible bottles ship flat so they take nearly 90% less space and use less fuel to transport than rigid water bottles. Our packaging is printed using wind power on 100% post-consumer paper. And we support water related environmental causes through participation in 1% for the Planet." Saving on fuel costs, using environmentally friendly materials, and supporting eco causes? Count me in!

I think it is just fantastic that there are so many unique alternatives to drinking bottled water. I encourage all of you to test one out today and see what works for your lifestyle. Mother Earth will thank you.
