  • I’d honestly love a glass bottle if it doesn’t break. The only downsides are weight and fragility. To be fair I’ve never tried. But I’ve smacked my water bottles against doorframes while in my backpack, dropped them on rocks while hiking, etc. It’s gonna get knocked around. I’d be concerned about getting soaked with water and shards of glass everywhere.

    I can’t, I’ve heard it in passing, so very well might’ve just been some doomer bullshit or sensationalizing the facts. It seems that it’d be unnecessary for them to use lead at all in the creation of a drinking implement, but I’m no material scientist. I guess I’ll have to look into it more.


  • It seems to be about the lead welding they use to bind the parts together. So as long as it’s a single piece of metal with no joints, I guess it’d be fine. I just want a water carrier, doesn’t need to keep things hot or cold. I’m becoming jaded with hearing about how all my very basic household items are actually killing me.
