Letter to a Celebrity

Today in Mrs.Bacon's class we were told to write a persuavive letter to a celebrity that advertises bottled water. My thoughts were why would a celebrity listen to a bunch of highschool kids that have nothing better to do with their lives. Then I reassured myself and said that it really wouldn't hurt to give it a try. Here's what I put.

Dear Ms.Anniston,
I have an issue concerning the product that you are advertising. I have learned that bottled water is not a very good thing to use as a source for a drink. It may be more efficient but it has its many flaws. Have you ever wondered where your water bottles go after you use them? Well, some water bottles that are supposed to be recycled end up going into land fills and pile up in someone else's backyard in a different country. I find that extremely unacceptable.
Another thing that the water companies are not telling you is that the water that is contained in those bottles was stolen from a river in this country or somewhere in the world and shipped here to be sold. People in third world countries can't have access to free clean water because these companies have taken over and controlled where the water goes. These companies are stealing their water and selling it back to them three times the price and it seems that they can't do anything about it.
We here in America can make a difference. Ms.Anniston since you are a celebrity you will have a larger influence on people. If we can have your support it will be greatly appreciated. I believe that we can all come together as one and contribute into making sure that third world countries will have clean drinking water each and everyday.
Thank you in advance for answer the letter.
Sincerely,

Shannon Lewis
