In the 1990s, I recall my grandfather remarking upon the new ubiquity of plastic water bottles, âWhen did everybody get so thirsty all of a sudden?â Indeed, plastic bottles have been proliferating at an exponential rate since the 1970s â the US alone is responsible for tens of billions of single-use plastic bottle waste every year. This week on Sea Change Radio, we take a look at the bottled water industry through the eyes of a relatively small but innovative player in the space. CEO and co-founder of FloWater, Rich âRazâ Razgaitis, joins us to tell us about his companyâs product, its mission to help curb Americaâs seemingly bottomless thirst for single-use plastic bottles, and the ways the bottled water industry is similar to Big Tobacco.
