On April 22 each year, Earth Day is a reminder that the planet as we know it is constantly evolving and changing – and we all play a huge part in ensuring the Earth, its animals and its people continue to flourish.

Environmental activist @ChrisGPackham demands change, now.

All profits from the sale of Jerry’s beautiful reusable water bottles go to making clean water projects in India and Tanzania.

Available in two different sizes (550ml and 750ml) the matt brushed and mirrored stainless steel bottles are a stylish way to keep yourself hydrated. Free from Bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates, lead, and other toxins, the bottles come with a lifetime warranty. The sustainably harvested bamboo and metal lid means it looks great hooked to your bag, or on your desk at work.

If you’re more of an on-the-go type, the pure tritan bottles – available in red, green and blue – have a removable box on the bottom of the bottle, making them perfect for stashing your keys in at the gym.
