Bottled Water Controversies

Listen Wednesday, Aug. 15, 2007 at 1:06 p.m. in Environment, Health, Society
Guest host: Rebecca Roberts

With bottled water sources ranging from mountain springs to chemically-treated tap water, we look at the popularity of bottled water and find out why some people are turning their backs on it.
