London Ontario Bans Plastic Water Bottle Sales
London Ontario Bans Plastic Water Bottle Sales
The city of London, Ontario has banned the sale of water in plastic bottles, at all municipal facilities. This will include city hall, golf courses, hockey arena and swimming pools. Additional drinking fountains, with refill taps, will be installed where required. 
For the past year, the London Aquatic Club stopped selling water at it’s swim meets, advising the teams from invited cities to bring refillable bottles. Water refilling stations were provided by the city at these meets.
This is obviously a step in the right direction, though not everyone has grasped the concept. A picture in the local paper announcing the ban, showed a young lady from a city golf course, proudly displaying a pitcher of water with DISPOSABLE PLASTIC CUPS!
