REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use a Reusable Water BottleWhile water bottles are needed for health and safety in certain places, we can do more to reduce the unnecessary use of them. What are the barriers to you using reusable bottles and tap water instead of bottled water? How could you make this a permanent habit?
Gabriella Gates 10/07/2019 11:53 AMEven though bottled water is filtered, you can buy a water filter and use your tap water to put in there then put that water into your reusable water bottle.-
