Happy Plastic Free July! The global movement aims to solve plastic pollution and asks millions of people around the world to refuse single-use plastics. One of the biggest waste culprits is plastic bottled water, approximately 80% of the bottled water we purchase ends up in our landfills which is why the best option is always to choose a reusable bottle instead.

Wondering how you can reduce your plastic waste? To start, take the pledge to refuse single-use plastic water bottles as part of our “Take Back The Tap” campaign and bring your reusable bottle or cup to campus! There are many water refill stations at both North and Lakeshore campuses so you can enjoy free high quality water all day.
