Tap into the rippling momentum towards Bottled Water Free Day! Whether you are a student, teacher, parent, worker, community advocate or…simply have the conviction that our public water system is a better choice--the time to act is now!
In Your School…
- Create bottled water free zones with other students and teachers! Find places where everyone will commit to not drink bottled water—a classroom, the hallway, the gym, and even the cafeteria.
- Do the research and feature it in a class presentation. Does your school have a beverage exclusivity agreement? If so, which company is involved and what’s the contract expiration date?
- Organize a classroom debate/discussion about water privatization, the right to water, or community concerns about the local watersheds.
