Water bottling hurts people…

Water bottling hurts people and the planet. We do not need more single-use plastics in our world. Water is a precious resource and if this resource is to be taken, what is the environmental consequence? The current fee paid by water bottling companies is not high enough. A higher fee would benefit the community, land and people. The price of a public natural resource like water needs to be commensurate with its value. All beings depend on water and when water bottling companies want to profit from that, there should be ample benefit to the watershed and community that is provided by that company.
