In an age of climate change…

In an age of climate change and a growing population, it is crucial that we protect our water resources. Bottled water is the low hanging fruit and should be the first and easiest to address. In light of the fact that it removes water from the watershed (unlike other large water drawers like golf courses) permanently it should be eliminated. The other reason to eliminate it is that we have municipal water systems that must be supported. There are few situations in which bottled water is needed and then it is rarely for single serving bottles but in larger quantities. Thank you for your time.
