By Alice Aslan, published 24/2/2009

Anyone who can afford to buy a bottle of water instead of drinking safe tap water has money to spend.

Bottled water has a market to those similar to the organic food market. who is to say these consumers have money to burn. What a brash comment. The other thing is we live in australia and pay our tax here, why not encourage the local development of anti poverty? I worked in somalia as an aid worker and the somali gov took most of it. Why would I encourage anyone to give to an overseas cause if it isnt going to do any good?? My advise spend locally.
