Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Beginning today, you won’t be able to buy plastic bottles of water at San Francisco International Airport
San Francisco is trying to be a pioneer among environmentally conscious American cities, introducing and implementing various initiatives to be a sustainable and healthy city for its residents, including humans, plants and animals in areas such as sustainable food, waste reduction, transportation and infrastructure, water conservation, proximity to the outdoors.
San Francisco International Airport, or SFO, is also determined to become the world’s first zero-waste airport by 2021. As part of the effort, the airport has banned the sale of plastic water bottles in the premises. Now anyone who wants to drink water has to drink from one of 100 or so free water fountains, reusable or recyclable bottle that is sold, or any type of container that is brought with. This will cut 10,000 plastic water bottles sold daily in the airport. Those who still want to drink from a plastic bottle still can choose colored, soda, tea or coffee drinks that are still sold on the shelves.
After all, plastic bottles contain microplastic particles that are thought to be harmful to your body and health in the long term. So, you could get healthier by drinking water not from plastic bottles and SFO helps you remind of that.
Enjoy reading the article and think if you want to get a reusable or compostable water bottle and carry it around with you, if you haven’t.
