There was talk last year about revisiting this scheme as it worked so well, what happened? There should be some way of cutting the amount of bottled drinks we consume, it’s outrageous. There should be a push to get people to fill up a bottle from home and drink from that.

I notice that the U.K. have made a move to stop using plastic straws but massive countries like America are still continuing to use them. Unless everyone is on board our efforts to reduce plastic waste won’t make any difference
