I commend the Florence water utility, Publiacqua, for attempting to break the water bottle habit. Too often I attend environmental meetings and food security meetings to see more than 85% of the attendees are drinking from brand-name, one-use, plastic bottles. This is the exact audience that should be setting an example for others to follow. I refill and bring my 16 oz., BPA-free, reusable bottle with me always. It is crucial that we all take steps to reduce our dependency on water bottles and the commercialization of a resource. Please follow my example and purchase your reusable bottle and remember to use it!
