The miserable puritan Brexit British live in constant fear of pleasure. In 1606, with James I on the throne, and the Puritans pushing for political ascendency, Britain passed the Act to Repress the Odious and Loathsome sin of Drunkenness. Wine was especially frowned upon by the Puritans because much of it came to Britain from France and Spain – Catholic countries.

As glass is less permeable than plastic, potential chemicals cannot leach in to your drink, resulting in a cleaner and purer beverage. This is why Sol Cups has designed a water bottle composed of glass, which also encourages us to be more aware of our environment at the same time. The bottle has a bamboo lid and a waterproof pouch with a side pocket for your essentials.

If you’d want to drink it, eat it, wear it, ride it, drive it; if it’d be cool to see, listen to or do, we’re writing about it.

Similar reports have found similarly horrific results all across the country for years. And not just across the country - just two weeks ago The Guardian reported that fish and chip shops all across the UK claimed to be selling typical fish species were in fact serving spiny dogfish - endangered in Europe - and hammerhead sharks - endangered globally.

"When you can buy like we do from both hemispheres, we can avoid countries that are having bad years and buy from countries that are having good years," said McArthur.

In 2012, Jemima Jones — sister of the artist Quentin Jones — and the photographer Lucy Carr-Ellison founded a health-focused, on-set catering business called Tart London. Late last year, they opened Wild by Tart, a cozy delicatessen, juice bar and apothecary inside a former power station and coal house in Belgravia. Come spring, they’ll add a palatial sit-down restaurant, photography studio and events space to this smorgasbord of wellness. But for now, stop by Wild by Tart for grab-and-go salads, juices from the nutritional wunderkinds Health Is Wealth or Tart-designed ceramic kitchenware. 3-4 Eccleston Yards, London SW1W 9AZ, tart-london.com.

Jessica Maffia, another artist, was picking berries. “I still can’t believe the serendipitous nature of this,” she said. “I have a garbage bag full of pokeweed in my studio! I swear, I just wrote on my calendar, ‘Learn how to make pokeberry dye.’ ”

There is a muscle memory for opening the lid on a glass milk bottle. You press down with your thumb firmly enough to dimple the foil but gently enough to keep the shape. We’re opening glass milk bottles from Dunlavin Dairy because we are trying to live for a week without buying any single-use plastic. It’s surprisingly challenging. “No Cheestrings?” asks the nine year old. Also fewer sweets, crisps and cereals which may be no bad thing. But they understand the reasons.

Each person has their own set of essentials that they take with them everywhere. Check your own list and see if a water bottle is part of it. If it isn’t, you should seriously consider adding it. It’s important to stay hydrated throughout the day and to help the environment by lessening your consumption of bottled water. Before you head out and get one, we suggest purchasing one made of glass. The most common ones you will usually see are made of heavy duty plastic but it’s time to make the switch. Unlike plastic, the glass won’t add any chemicals to your filtered water. Aside from this, they are also easier to clean and won’t leave your water tasting anything less than crisp and refreshing. Have I convinced yet? If so, here are some options you can look at.
