[...] Turn back to your taps – we all pay the price for bottled waterTimes Online – Feb 18, 2006Despite its pure image, bottled water is making a significant contribution to climate change. The industry produces as much greenhouse gas as the electricity consumption of about 20,000 homes in a year, according to research by The Times. To supply the more than two billion litres of bottled water that is consumed by Britons every year, a quarter of which comes from abroad, bottled-water companies produce 33,200 tonnes of CO2 emissions, just less than the electricity consumption of 20,000 households, and the equivalent of the energy needs of 6,000 households. The principal environmental cost comes from transport — about a fifth of bottles come from southeast France, about 600 miles (1,000km) away — but there are also costs involved in the manufacture and disposal of bottles. Evian transports its water about 930km from Lake Geneva, producing about 14,000 tonnes of CO2 in the process. Volvic, whose water comes from Auvergne, produces about 9,000 tonnes. British suppliers, with smaller distances to travel, are less environmentally costly… Evian exports about 50 per cent of its water to more than 120 countries. Volvic exports about 60 per cent. The report accused some producers of disrupting the water supply of local communities. The water-extraction facilities for Coca-Cola’s Dasani line in India, for example, had caused water shortages in more than 50 villages, it said. Bob Geldof, who has worked on water conservation issues in Africa, said: “It is the great irony of the 21st century that the most basic things in the supermarket, such as water and bread, cost the most. Getting water from the other side of the Earth to sell here is ridiculous. ” Last year the bottled-water market was worth £1.Related: Golf | Lorena Ochoa’s 68 puts her one shot from lead [...]

The offices of Uzuko Funeral Services are housed in one. So is the Ubuntu health clinic, and the Number One Hair Masterers [sic], and a fast-food takeaway where the metal exterior is splashed with a vivid cartoon of two men tucking into fried chicken. When Ms Mtimkole, who runs her hair business with her sister Zukiswa, went into partnership eight years ago, she decided it was a waste of money to rent a shop for 1,000 rand (£89) a month. Instead she spent 16,000 rand on a container and then rented the ground it stood on for 150 rand a month. “When you have a shop made of wood, thieves can break in and steal what you have inside,” said Pascal Lawson, 28, who works at his brother’s mobile phone repair shop, Dr Sam’s Cell Repairs. “This, I think, is safe.Related: Golf’s professional Grand Slam has developed over time – Golf [...]
