‘The Council pop* issue’:
Should I drink bottled or tap water?

To kick off a series of monthly discussion groups, North London WEN met at the start of June to consider the issue of bottled water. By examining ‘The Council Pop’ issue, local group members hoped to reach agreement about whether to drink bottled or tap water. In order to do so, the group considered the environmental costs of packaging and transporting bottled water, together with ethical, health and access issues surrounding tap water. A blind taste test of bottled and tap water revealed subtle differences in preference. Taking all issues into consideration, the group’s verdict was that we should drink tap, rather than bottled, water. Watch this space for a more detailed summary of the discussion, coming soon!
