Hi Ken, Actually the #7 bottles are the exact bottles we’re talking about. Nalgene’s Lexan bottles (#7) are made of polycarbonate plastic (PC), a plastic known to leach the hormone-disrupting chemical bisphenol-A (BPA). Number 2, 4 or 5 bottles are safer which includes the white Nalgene bottles.

I agree, glass would be best, but it’s heavy and since it breaks it’s not always practical. Especially in your line of work, glass sounds dangerous!

Lisa, I totally agree. Kevin at work got me started on drinking from glass, and I’ve tossed all my plastic. Now I drink from a one gallon, glass apple cider jug. It’s perfect for my outdoor work, and the best part is it’s so big I always know where it is!

Fortunately, the plastic nalgene bottles, with the no. 7, are the lest harmful. I realize plastic is everywhere, from food containers to wrapers, but if you can reduce it, I think it’s worth it.
