Product Recall - SIGG bottles

I've just learned about a product recall by SIGG, which makes cool reusable water bottles, sold at places like REI, Whole Foods, New Seasons, etc. I've loved the lightweight, durable bottles with their fun designs and bought some for my whole family. It turns out there is some question about their old liners and BPA-leaching. if you have SIGG bottles and are concerned, check out the following link for more info. There are photos there of both their old and new liners, and you can see which you have.

Water Resources Education Center

Description

Teaching people of all ages how to wisely use this important, life-giving natural resource is what Vancouver's Water Resources Education Center is all about.

When you visit the Water Center, you'll experience a variety of hands-on exhibits, educational programs and events. Discover the wonders of water and what that means for groundwater, surface water, aquatic ecosystems, drinking water, conservation, wastewater, solid waste, recycling, hazardous waste, composting and the City of Vancouver's utility services.

Enjoy the hands-on, interactive activities in the Exhibit Hall. View the nature-inspired art in the White Sturgeon Art Gallery. Take in the panoramic view of the Columbia River from the Center's balconies. Get a closer look at the rolling Columbia River and nearly 50 acres of wildlife-rich wetlands from the Marine Park Overlook that also connects visitors to Vancouver's Renaissance Trail, a paved waterfront trail favored by walkers, runners and bicyclists.
