I would like to congratulate the people of Bundanoon, 100 miles south of Sydney, Australia, for banning the use of bottled water.
I would like more people, especially tourists to start purifying and filtering their own water for drinking.
The amount of waste produced by bottled water is just out of control. Even here in the U.K people have been conned into buying bottled water, even though we have some of the safest cleanest drinking water in the world.
I suggest for travellers to get a recyclable reusable drinking bottles and go online or to your local camping shop to get your purifying kits before you go. You can also get good advice from all good travel clinics
