REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use a Reusable Water BottleWhile water bottles are needed for health and safety in certain places, we can do more to reduce the unnecessary use of them. What are the barriers to you using reusable bottles and tap water instead of bottled water? How could you make this a permanent habit?
Cole Larson 11/13/2024 11:59 AMSome barriers include access to water fountains and water bottle filling stations, especially in dorms where we don't have any sinks in our rooms. All the floors have them, but if they did not we would have an increase in water bottles being used. I have stopped buying packs of water from the grocery store and only use my reusable water bottle and pitcher in my room.
