I'd share this.
Striving for a Green Certification, we have elimnated all bottled water
sales, and even students bringing it to school. We did this by putting
reverse osmosis filters on all the water fountains and special faucets with
the filter in the faculty room and cafeteria. It cost about $200 per water
site to do this. We do sell metal refillable containers with our logo,
along with Kirby clothing in the student store. It took a few months, but
everyone now uses refillable bottles or washable plastic cups for their
drinking water.
