Things to keep in mind when looking for a green water bottle:
- Make sure your bottle is BPA free. This pesky chemical is in no way green, and is potentially harmful to your health. It's too bad, really—it's even in the hiker's favorite canteen: the Nalgene bottle. To be extra careful, buy a stainless steel bottle to avoid BPA. If you can find a BPA-free bottle lying around from a sporting event or something, use that, but it might be hard to find an older BPA-free bottle (it's a realatively new concern).
- Absolutely no bottled water. I may have already made this clear, but just in case...
- Buy a durable bottle that will withstand multiple uses. This is especially true if you're an athlete, and you're going to be using your bottle during rigorous activities. Canteens like the Kor One Water Bottle are good options for such purposes—this one even boasts an easy-action flip top for quick access.
