re: Trapped water dilemma. Is this the reason it doesn't rain anymore.

I have a buddy who is a prepper...he has been cutting empty plastic water bottles to allow the last few drops out for about 30 years that I know of. I guess if mankind lasts long enough it may make a difference. Even a plastic water bottle will eventually break down in a landfill though...it might take thousands of years, I don't know, but it will eventually break down and that water will escape. I suspect the idiocy of drinking water from a municipal source that is bottled in a plastic bottle and shipped lord knows how far away instead of simply drinking it straight from the municipal water source is far more dangerous than the few drops left in said bottle. I could be wrong. How we have arrived at such a place when worldwide man has the safest drinking water more readily available than at any time in our history is beyond me but water in plastic bottles is certainly a thing....
