How to Reduce Plastic Waste at School: School the Bottle Slideshow Marketing by Michael Hulleman of Copyrise.com Banning bottles on school premises is not enough; We believe better results in eliminating plastic waste can be achieved through education, community values, and implementing water bottle filling stations in every school in North America. Healthy choices begin at school. Make a pledge to only consume water from sustainable and environmentally friendly, sanitary reusable water bottles and water bottle filling stations. No more single use water bottles. Look around you. Do you think the companies behind single-use bottles deserve to have their products in existence for over a hundred years? Is that fair? Vote with your money. Make a difference. For image credits and attribution information, please see slide notes for Creative Commons license information.
