American researchers have calculated the total energy expenditure, the individual phases of the chain, from the production of plastic bottles of water to the controls, the labeling and filling of the bottles to the transport and sale. • The two phases of the process that cost more in terms of energy are the production of plastic bottles and transport. Only for the production of water bottles was estimated consumption of 50 million barrels of oil every year. 4 Diletta L. Class IV A
