Refill not Landfill

Bottled water costs the earth. It’s more than 1,000 times more expensive than tap water and 200ml of oil is required to create and transport a one-litre bottle from factory to customer. Add the problem of empty bottle disposal and you’ve got a serious environmental issue on your hands.

But what’s the alternative when you’re thirsty and your personal water bottle has run dry? Public drink stations of course.

Tweed Shire Council provides drink fountains and taps in high pedestrian areas so you can quench your thirst in a way that doesn’t cost the earth.
