Did you know that around 1 million plastic drinking bottles are bought globally every single minute? That’s a staggering 300 million tonnes of plastic waste each year, much of which ends up polluting our oceans and harming wildlife. Here in Australia, we use about 15 million single-use plastic bottles a year. Yikes! Much of this waste takes centuries to break down. But disposal is not just the problem here, there’s the carbon footprint, too.

Understanding Your Carbon Footprint

So, what’s a carbon footprint? It’s basically your personal contribution to greenhouse gas emissions from using your car to your power bill, but that’s not all! It might seem innocent enough, grabbing a plastic bottle of water during your lunch break before the gym. But the reality is that every stage of bottled water production has a significant environmental cost. From the manufacturing of the plastic itself to the fuel burned transporting bottles around the country, the carbon footprint of bottled water is enormous. In fact, plastic production alone is responsible for about 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions.


The great news is that you can make a simple switch to a reusable option like Earths Water’s Ultra Water Filter Bottle and drastically reduce your carbon footprint. Not only can you sip guilt-free, you can also do your bit for the environment. 

The Ultra Water Filter Bottle: A Sustainable Choice

This isn’t your average water bottle. Our Ultra Water Filter Bottle is designed for people who care about both their hydration and the planet. It’s a sturdy 750ml bottle made from strong, BPA-free Tritan plastic, which means it’s built to last.

Now, here’s where things get interesting. It comes with two filter options:

Urban Filter: The Hero for Tap Water

The Urban filter is a lifesaver for city dwellers, making sure your tap water is clean and safe to drink. In urban settings, tap water is often treated with chlorine and other chemicals to keep it safe. But you don’t want to taste that chemical cocktail while sipping your H2O, do you? The Urban filter effectively removes those unpleasant tastes and odours, giving you pure, refreshing water.

With just a few sips, you can wave goodbye to those pesky bottled options that contribute to plastic waste. Plus, it’s perfect for top-ups at home or while out and about. No more worrying about what’s lurking in your drink!

Nature Filter: Your Adventure Companion

Heading out for a hike? The Nature filter is perfect for filling up from lakes, creeks, and springs. It effectively zaps bacteria and viruses, keeping you safe while you soak in the great outdoors. With Australia’s beautiful landscapes, from the bush to the beach, you can stay hydrated and connected to nature without relying on single-use plastic bottles. Ditch those disposable options and embrace eco-friendly hydration instead!


By using these filters, you're not just making sure your water’s clean, you’re also cutting down on your plastic consumption and lowering your carbon footprint. And the more you use it, the more impact you make.

The Everyday Impact of Your Choices

Are you finally ready to make the switch to a reusable water bottle? Let’s see the impact it has on your daily routine:

Easy On Your Wallet

We already know that bottled water is a wallet drainer. By switching to a reusable filter bottle, you can keep your hard-earned cash where it belongs—in your pocket. The average Aussie spends around $600 a year on bottled water. That’s enough to treat yourself to a few good meals instead.

And if you’re the type who loves to take road trips or spend weekends at the beach, the savings multiply. Just imagine: every time you fill up your Ultra Water Filter Bottle, that’s one plastic bottle you’re not buying. More savings for you!

Eco-Friendly Convenience

The Ultra Water Filter Bottle is designed for life on the go. With a handy capacity, it’s perfect for everyone who wants to stay hydrated without adding to the plastic waste. Whether you’re at the gym, work, or chilling at the beach, it’s your ideal companion.

The bottle's lightweight and durable construction means you can toss it in your bag without worrying about leaks or spills. And did we mention it’s 100% BPA-free? So, you can sip without the side of toxins!


Lots of Health Benefits

Now, aside from helping you save money and the planet, filtered water also packs a punch when it comes to your health. You see, the Ultra Water Filter Bottle is about making sure you’re sipping on clean, safe water wherever you are. And that comes with some serious health benefits.

  • Say Goodbye to Contaminants. The best part about using water filters? It kicks those nasties right out. The Ultra Water Filter Bottle reduces up to 98% of contaminants from your tap water, including chlorine, lead, and other metals. It also takes care of bacteria and viruses, keeping you safe from potential waterborne illnesses. So, whether you’re filling up in the city or from a mountain stream, you’re giving your body clean water that’s free from harmful pollutants.
  • Better Hydration, Better You. When your water is free from odd tastes or smells (hello, chlorine!), you’re more likely to drink it. And staying hydrated comes with its own set of benefits—more energy and clearer skin, just to name a few. Filtering your water encourages you to sip more throughout the day, and with the Ultra Water Bottle, you’ll have that smooth, refreshing taste that makes it easier to hit your daily water intake goals.
  • Good for Your Gut and Overall Health. Some contaminants in unfiltered water, like bacteria and viruses, can wreak havoc on your digestive system, potentially causing gastrointestinal issues. But with a reliable filter like the one in the Ultra Water Filter Bottle, you’re protecting yourself from those risks. Clean water supports not only your digestive system but also helps your kidneys function better, flushing out toxins and promoting overall health.
  • Retaining Essential Minerals. The cool thing about good filtration (like our proprietary COREtech™ filter technology) is that while it removes harmful substances, it leaves behind essential minerals like magnesium and calcium. These minerals are crucial for maintaining healthy bones, muscles, and overall bodily functions. This means you can stay hydrated while nourishing your body with the good stuff it needs.


The Ripple Effect

By now, it’s clear that reducing your carbon footprint doesn’t require grand gestures—it’s about making smart, sustainable choices in your daily routine. The Ultra Water Bottle is designed to make those choices easy. It’s durable, convenient, and adaptable to both urban and outdoor settings.

When you start choosing sustainable options, you’re making a good example of how to care for the planet that others can follow. It’s like tossing a stone in the water: one small action can send out ripples of change.

The next time you’re tempted to grab a plastic bottle, remember that you have a better choice right at your fingertips. Clean water for you and a cleaner planet for everyone—now that’s something worth toasting to!
