I never drink cold water.
First of all it is healthier for stomach (it doesn't like cold). Secondly, there is less chance to get sore throat.
I recycle too, however, I do it only if it doesn't involve changing my personal habits. I am a typical NIMBY. For example, I used to drink bottled water at work, then re-use 0.5L bottle for 3-4 days refilling it with a water from water station (probably the same as tap water). Then chuck it into the standard bin, cannot be bothered to recycle at work. One day I learned that re-used plastic bottles might retain some viruses/micro organisms that are unhealthy. After that I bought a metal flask and refill it instead, cheaper.
However, at home, it is convenient to have a few packs of 8x2L bottles of water for drinking only. For cooking we just use tap water. For tea we use tap water filtered in Brita water filter.
Lots of water today because I had to walk a lot. Maybe I will make a cup of tea now. Ceylon?
