S'well Bottle

I came across this company by accident and it immediately caught my "green" eye. 

First, it saved me time from the homework of researching the number of plastic bottles in the ocean, hurting our ecosystem--that number is 88 billion bottles. That's Billion with a "B"! Just their homepage photo is captivating. Who would want to destroy our clean source of water by purchasing PLASTIC bottles?

What are they selling? The S'well Bottle  is both functional and stylish, and well insulated that holds temperatures both hot and cold for long periods. The site encourages us to reuse our bottle instead of picking up a billionth plastic bottle of water.

Another description to quote the website:

"Your camping canteen went to the big city, and got a serious makeover. S’well bottles are elegant and useful. Portable and chic. Double walled, vacuum insulated construction allows beverages stay hot or cold for a long time."
S'well has thought of everything and partnered with WaterAid to help families in developing countries receive clean water.  Often family members travel for miles to obtain a small bucket of clean water that serves for cooking, a washcloth bath, and little else.

Next time you're shopping around for that new favorite "cup" to hold your Starbucks coffee, cool, clean TAP water, or even some warm soup, try S'well!
