"Hi. I'm Rachel Yatuzis, and I'm going to teach you a little bit about reusing bottles. If you have a bottle that you want to reuse, whether it be, you know, a drinking a bottle that's reusable or even just a water bottle that you may want to refill to conserve energy and help save the planet, you want to make sure to wash it out really well with some anti-bacterial dish soap. And then make sure that it dries completely before you try to reuse it. If you don't, it can grow bacteria like this black mold, and that's not something that you want to have in your home. It spreads really quickly. You don't want to ingest it. That's what'll happen if you don't let the bottle dry completely. Other than that, you can, you know, use the plastic bottle to sprout some plants if you're trying to grow some plants or want a garden. You can fill it back up with water and put it back in the refrigerator. You know, it's really up to the...your imagination. Any thing you can think of, you can pretty much do with a plastic bottle. I am Rachel Yatuzis, and that is how you reuse bottles."
