Is access to clean drinking water a basic human right, or a commodity that should be bought and sold like any other article of commerce?

TAPPED takes a behind-the-scenes look into the unregulated and unseen world of an industry that aims to privatize and sell back the one resource that ought never to become a commodity—water. From the process of plastic production to the vast ocean in which so many of these bottles end up, this documentary trails the path of the bottled water industry and the communities which were the unwitting chips on the table.

Did you know that Americans use 60,000 plastic bags every five minutes—single-use disposable bags that we mindlessly throw away? But where is “away?” Where do the bags and other plastics end up, and at what cost to our environment, marine life and human health? BAG IT follows “everyman” Jeb Berrier as he navigates our plastic world. Jeb is not a radical environmentalist, but an average American who decides to take a closer look at our cultural love affair with plastics.

About Plastic Planet. We live in the Age of Plastic. It?s cheap and practical, and it?s everywhere – even in our blood. But is it a danger to us? This feisty documentary takes us on a journey around the globe – from the Moroccan Sahara to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, from a factory in China to the highest peaks of the Alps – to reveal the far-flung reaches of our plastic problem.
