Australians spend more than half a billion dollars on bottled water every year. But as people sip on the chilled H2O, rarely do they question the processes of manufacture, packaging and transportation that are needed to achieve that convenience. This panel examines the impacts and reasons for the shift from the tap to the bottle and debates the implications of transforming water from a common resource to a commercial product.
