Any fitness greenies out there?
This giveaway is for you.
We all know that drinking water is healthy. Study after study has told us so.
Unfortunately, this lead to a multi-million dollar bottle water industry which neither good for the environment nor your wallet, as this video shows….
Did you know that more than 99.9 percent of Americans live in homes where unlimited amounts of fresh, treated water is available?
Tapping into this, Eric Yaverbaum and Mark DiMassimo launched the national Tappening ad campaign to re-brand tap water as safe, affordable, and ever so good for the environment.
They created thought provoking ads to encourage people to stop buying bottled water and start getting their water straight from the tap. And along the way, they started produced and selling BPA free water bottles designed to store tap water for your drinking pleasure.
The Tappening bottles are big, colorful, and tell a story in one or two words.
And Healthbolt has one to give away.
Interested?
Then leave a comment before 13th December 2008 as to why this should be yours and what color you’d prefer – green or blue.
It’s only open to US Residents.
The winner will be announced on 14th December and sent an email with the subject heading ‘Healthbolt Giveaway Winner’ with instructions on how to claim their prize.
And don’t forget it’s ‘everyday a giveaway’ this month at Healthbolt.
I would love a reuseable water bottle for drinking water everyday. I have one reusable water bottle but I always have to refill a plastic water bottle (I know, I know, it isn’t safe to drink water from those after refilling it) or deal with a collection of glasses all around my house. I also do not know if the current reusable bottle I use is BPA free. I would like a green bottle.
I would love a green bottle to keep up my reputation around the office as the office environmentalist!
I drink lots of Brita-filtered water, so I can use this to drink from instead of reusing plastic bottles every week. I like green!
Green is my favorite color! I have had reusable bottles before and have battered and beaten them up ~ but love not using the single use bottles.
I use water bottles constantly, but they’re all plain, so this would be great to send the message while it’s being useful!
Oops, forgot – blue
I can always use a new bottle to bring to the gym – green sounds particularly appealing.
Hi, My youngest son has always liked our tap water versus water in plastic bottles! I would love to give him this fun water bottle. He takes water with him every time he goes to his room. Thanks, Cindi
i live in a freakin’ desert and walk dogs for a living. water is good! hooray for water! digging the blue bottle…
Yea I love Tappening! The green lifestyle is my life! I’d love a green bottle please!
I would choose blue and i need a big waterbottlebecause i dont have one
I have become quite the green guy. I would love to set an example for others in my office. Green bottle seems right for a green guy.
I bought my daughter a BPA-free water bottle for all the reasons it’s good to drink water from re-usable bottles, including that she’s a gymnast and works out a lot s- but you know how daughter’s are: she can’t find it. Hers first one was green. Maybe your green one could help me out. She would love the message (and I do, too!)
Thanks, lisa
Great work to call attention to this issue. But there really is one more important concern that people should check out and addresss. There is a large amount of scientific and medical research that shows drinking fluoride introduces many health risks. This is for real, it’s not about communist plots! And while chlorine serves a good purpose in cleaning water, does that mean you need to drink it?
Drinking tap water and using your own bottles are the way to go. But you also need a good kitchen filter so you are truly drinking good healthy water. Sorry, but Brita doesn’t even claim to do too much to clean the water.
Keep up the good work. For more info please visit http://www.friendsofwater.com and visit the pages on Water Bottles, Fluoride, Chlorine, Water Filters and moer.
I would use this everyday!
both are nice, but I’d like blue
Cool water bottles! Green for me!
This water bottle would be a great alternative to the plastic water bottles i bring with me to school everyday. My campus is trying to be more eco-friendly, so having a re-usable water would help the environment, although in a tiny, tiny way. At home, my roommate has a Brita filter we all use because our tap water is from a well, and has a ton of chemicals in it. [When we wash our dishes, there's always white residue when the water dries. We think it's calcium, but who knows?] This water bottle sends a great message to people I walk by to not only drink their daily recommended amount of water, but also to help preserve the local environment. Green is the only way to go!
I would love green one..by using this bottle, I can pass on the great message.would love to win.

I’m encouraging people to use their own mugs and water bottles instead of contributing to landfills. I have a corn-plastic coffee mug I take everywhere, and I could use a new green water bottle, as mine has developed a little crack in the lid
I would love a green water bottle. I think the water bottles I have at home has BPA, but am too cheap to throw them out. But since I do not use them that often, I figure that it is okay on the few occasion that I do use them. I really should throw them out.
I would love a blue one-my husband hasn’t been able to give up his plastic bottle addiction-maybe this would help!
I want the green one. I always lose water bottles so maybe ill chain this one to my gym bag to ensure the security of it.
I love the green bottle! I’d love this to take on walks.
Green bottles of water make the world go round.
I would love green-since I’m trying to be green-haha!
Would be a great addition for when I go backpacking in the catskills. Green please!
This would be a great win for me. I really need to drink more water each day. I think I would like the green one. Thanks for the giveaway.
I would love the green bottle. It would be great to take to the gym. I am all for drinking tap water.
I would love to win the blue bottle because it would let me stop buying a bottle of water every day during my walk in the park!
I *love* the green bottle. I drink over a gallon a day so this would be *WAY* helpful.
I love ecofriendly products! I would pick blue!
I drink water all day every day! This would be wonderful! I like the green one!
I love the message, and I need a water bottle because I threw them all away when I figured out that they were not BPA-free. I’ll take any color!!
I would love the green bottle because then when you use it you are really advertising about drinking more green.
I need one because my kids are always tossing away all their empty water bottles and it drives me nuts. I think Blue would be my favorite!
I would enjoy using this as we have excellent drinking water that I would like to take with me on my road trips. I prefer the blue color.
My family likes to go hiking. We could use another water bottle since I just had to thow away a couple this summer. One my son dropped in the sewage water when helping with flood clean-up and other one the lid broke on me. I would like the green color! Thanks!
I think it should be mine because I’m a water-holic! I have water with me everywhere, and I’d rather not use two or three bottles per day – - just one, the green one!
I love H2O and I know it would taste even better in this green water bottle. My tap water is from a well and pure ,had it tested. So from tap to bottle ,I don’t believe in any middle plasticGreat green giveaway!!
my kids would love this for basketball practice and game in blue
I’ve been drinking more water (TAP, by god!) lately than at any other part of my life – I’m intentionally trying to limit my intake of harmful chemicals and cleanse my body. I’ve been using a styrofoam cup over & over & over again at work because I haven’t found a water bottle I like – I’d love to try this one in BLUE!
my water bottle just broke so this would be great to have! i’d love the green one!
I would love a green one – I use bottled water and try to reuse them for up to a month before disposing of them but I hate that I can’t clean them out thoroughly and have a large dishwasher safe water jug.
I have a reverse osmosis water filter fitted in my kitchen and use it to fill my jug, so no new news to me. We started over 20 years ago before bottled water came into vogue when we turned on our tap and got orange muddy water which occured because the water workers were on strike and our pumping station near our house was down. We were assured that it was DRINKABLE.
I would like a blue one, I forgot.
I like the health tips.
