According to a recently published report by the United Nations University Institute for Water, Environment and Health (UNU-WEH), 600 billion water bottles are produced annually, amounting to 25 million metric tons of plastic waste.

ShineWater, a brand of bottled water containing 100% of the daily recommended dose of vitamin D, otherwise known as the “sunshine vitamin,” has recognized the enormity of the plastic pollution crisis, announcing a change to all aluminum cans. According to ShineWater, it is the first brand in the enhanced water category to make such a sustainable packaging move.
