The Best Reusable Water Bottles To Ditch Single-Use Plastics
By Lizzie Wilmot
As the colder days draw in, the importance of staying hydrated isn’t always at the forefront of our minds. It’s widely assumed that summertime is when we should be concerned about dehydration, but did you know that it’s just as vital during winter as well? Lack of perspiration and too many woolly jumpers means that it’s often hard for us to know when we’re inadequately hydrated, so it’s important that we stay on top of it.
However, the way in which we drink our water is just as paramount. Each year, plastic bottles, lids and caps are the most commonly found piece of non-reusable waste on Europe’s beaches, causing a hugely detrimental effect on the environment. Making the small switch to a sustainable, reusable bottle is the best way to help combat this, and we’re here to help you choose your best fit!
