Bottles Bottles all around Arnold

Plastic Bottles around Severna Park will take over 400 years to naturally decompose.

The ball fields, the lunch rooms, the playgrounds and even the side of the roads.  There are water bottles everywhere we turn.  Statistics show globally we buy a million plastic bottle per minute. Now that we know we are the cause of all these bottles, what can we do to help eliminate them?

Our family recently purchased a bottle less water cooler similar to those at bottleless.com.  We had been using the 5 gallon jugs but felt bad even about that.  So now we are bottle less and we use refillable water bottles or glasses, which makes us feel like we are doing our part.  This did come with the concern of having a water line installed and running.  Which could leak and cause water damage to the kitchen or the basement below. 

Using a professional plumber to help us install the water line and verify all the connections were sealed, we felt very comfortable that we are doing the best thing for the environment.  We do check our lines once a month when we change our filter to make sure we spot any small leaks ahead of time.  So far so good!
