The people of the Inuit territory of Nunavut in Canada have found a new use
for their icebergs. They plan to melt, bottle and sell them as exotic “Arcticâ€
drinking water. Over 17,000 bottles will be exported to Japan for market tests
later this month by the Qikiqtaaluk Corporation, based in Iqaluit. The company
hopes to cash in on the purity of the ice, which was frozen thousands of years
before pollution could get at it.
