Sebenarnya, cerita macam ni dah banyak yg masuk dlm inbox e-mail semua. Betul tak? Ramai yg ambil kisah dan ramai juga yg tidak peduli. Dulu kes botol2 dan bekas2 plastik. Sekarang botol air mineral pula. Dahulu aku sering mengguna semula botol2 air mineral. Baik saiz besar mahupun yg kecil. Setiap kali Adlina ke sekolah, akan kubekalkan air di dalam botol mineral kerana dia sering menghilangkan bekal air yg dibawanya. So, lebih jimat menggunakan botol mineral yg diguna semula. Tetapi sejak aku mendapat cerita ini, fikiran ku terus berubah serta merta. Takut dan perkara ini harus dielakkan serta merta. "Many are unaware of poisoning caused by re-using plastic bottles. Some of you maybe in the habit of using and re-using your disposable mineral water bottles (e.g. Nestle, Bisleri, Aquafina, Kinley, Evian, etc...), keeping them in your car or at work. Not a good idea. It happened in Dubai , when a 12 year old girl died after a long usage (16 months) of SAFA mineral water bottle, as she used to carry the same fancy (painted by herself) bottle to her school daily. In a nutshell, the plastic (called polyethylene terephthalate or PET) used in these bottles contains a potentially carcinogenic element (something called diethyihydroxylamine or DEHA). The bottles are safe for one-time use only; if you must keep them longer, it should be or no more than a few days, week max, and keep them away from heat as well. Repeated washing and rinsing can cause the plastic to break down and the carcinogens (cancer-causing chemical agents) can leak into the water that YOU are drinking. Better to invest in water bottles that are really meant for multiple uses. This is not something we should be scrimping on. Those of you with family - do please advise them, especially children". Memang diakui takkan nak bekalkan air kepada anak-anak kecil menggunakan botol kaca. Amat merbahaya dan tidak praktikal. Jika terjatuh, pecah pasti ada yg cedera bukan? Jadi aku menggunakan juga botol plastik tetapi tidak diisi dengan air panas. Dan botol2 plastik ini juga harus selalu diganti dengan yg baru.
Ini adalah sedikit info dari saya. Jika apa yg disajikan adalah salah, saya minta maaf. Hanya ambil iktibar dan ingin berkongsi dgn anda semua sahaja.
