It's like the emperor's new clothes. Mineral water does untold environmental damage, tastes exactly like tap water and costs 1000 times as much. And yet sad gullible people across the world fall for the mineral water myth and think they're buying something crucial to their health or self-esteem when they're not. Someone's gotta tell 'em the emperor's got nothing on -- and that someone is Barney Howells from Partizan London who made this very funny and slightly cruel video for Green Thing. Enjoy.

  • Tears of a cloud..? More like tears of a clown!

    This video is nonsense and just acts as a hero of being ignorant.

    The fact is different minerals waters ARE different and TASTE different.

    The video tried to laugh at this information,but jokes on them....i'm sure they still believe that the world is flat!!

    why not just fix a tap to the side of your toilet bowl if you want to be extra green...that would be super duper Green :-D

    I raise my class of mineral water to the tears of clowns

  • I like the toilet bowl tap idea Tony, now that's clever - you mean the world isn't flat?!??!

  • It takes 125 pints of water to produce one stinking bottle of the crap. Why not bottle air too, and love, and humanity, and sell it to us too! Why not STEAL our Children, BOTTLE THEM, and sell them back to us. Brilliant! Thank you!! Nestlé DIE!

  • This is ingenious. It shows how marketers try different approaches to sell us anything.

  • "tears of a cloud, as old as the sky as new as the day!"

    "when life's a bitch, grab your mitch!"

    "and here's the genius: the formula: two hydrogen one oxigen!!"

    ...water...

  • A friend of mine and I were talking about how we should make organic water...we would probably make a fortune.

  • It should be recognised that for many people, it's either bottled water or bottled soft drink. It's clear that soft drink is MUCH more energy intensive than just water, but if you stigmatise bottled water, people may just choose soft drink, which would be counter-productive.

    So, yeah, tap water over bottled water, but don't make consumers of bottled water feel terrible just because.

  • Great way of getting this across! It is such bad news. When did everyone start being such an arse about water anyway????
