by Alan Levin

Concerned about the future of water locally and on the planet? Tapped, a hard-hitting documentary which examines the role of the bottled water industry and its effects on our health, climate change, pollution, and our reliance on oil, will be shown this Sunday, Feb. 6 at 2:30p at FOR in Upper Nyack.
