Town in Australia bans... water!

[DarthGohan1]

That is awesome! Good for them... I wish more local governments would do the same. Don't get me wrong... there are times when bottled watter is just too convenient to not drink... but there are also a lot of times where people could easily refill a reusable bottle and use it for a long time, save money, and be drinking tap water which is better for you than bottled water, anyway. For example - in school. For every 10 people I see drinking bottled water, there's 1 with a reusable water container... which makes no sense at all, and like the article says, is horrible for the environment. For normal every day activities, such as going to school or work, there should be more encouragement to just use a water bottle, not bottled water.

plastic bottles of water can be reused too.....

For a week, 2 max. A reusable bottle for water can be used for years.

What if you were in the middle of that town on a hot summer's day, and you didn't bring your water bottle? What would you do? Ask for someone else's? eww, unsanitary.

That's where the bubblers come in they were talking about

Soda and energy drink sales are now skyrocketing in Bundanoon.

Anyway, that may not be the case. They will probably put some effort into making them sanitary for everyone since the ban was made. Besides, everyone but one person seems to approve of the ban, so why would they make it unsanitary for each other when there's a high chance that the same person will use the same bubbler?

Nice misleading title. Too bad I can't bury people here.

It's good that they're banning bottled water. It's a complete scam and harmful to the environment if not recycled. I read in the article in the paper about this. They're apparently trying to do this as well in Canada. I hope they do. Our environment needs all the help it can get.

WTF? Well that sucks.
