Helen CzerskiWe need to STOP giving out "free" plastic & metal reusable water bottles at events & as marketing materials. It's a terrible habit. If you actually care about the environment, tell everyone to bring their own bottle so they only ever have & need one. Don't waste materials/energy by giving out more!
Karen E. Lund 💙💛@helenczerski I have collected a few, probably five or six. They're nice reminders, useful, and in warm weather I keep a couple in the freezer for use on short notice.
But I agree we've reached peak water bottle. Those who use them probably have enough (me) and giving them to those who never use them is wasteful.
Suggestion: Have a few on hand, but you need to ask. Charge a nominal fee; even $1 will make people think before taking yet *another* water bottle.
