The Plastic Addiction Bites Back

Are you addicted to plastic?

"There are more things we DON'T know about plastics, than things we DO." That's one of the many eyebrow-raising statements you'll hear in the newly released Indie film entitled "Addicted to Plastic." Al Gore is sure to be lining up for this one.

ADDICTED TO PLASTIC is a feature-length documentary about solutions to plastic pollution. The point-of-view style documentary encompasses three years of filming in 12 countries on 5 continents, including two trips to the middle of the Pacific Ocean where plastic debris accumulates.

The film details plastic's path over the last 100 years and provides a wealth of expert interviews on practical and cutting edge solutions to recycling, toxicity and biodegradability. These solutions - which include plastic made from plants - will provide viewers with a hopeful perspective about our future with plastic.

The movie premiers TONIGHT, April 28, 2009, at 10PM on the Sundance Channel. (http://www.sundancechannel.com) It has been showcased all over the world, receiving documentary awards from film festivals all over the globe.

And, although it doesn't really need saying, I just thought I'd remind you all that Multi-Pure water filters are biodegradable! They're actually good for the landfills, as they continue to soak up harmful contaminants! Each cartridge prevents 12,000 individual use plastic bottles from entering the landfill each year. You're welcome.
