Drink from the tap

There is a campaign in Italy to encourage people to stop buying bottled water and to drink from taps. I saw this sign on a bus recently.

I think it will take a while for this to take effect. There are whole areas in supermarkets devoted to bottled water and I see it in every shopping cart.

I don’t understand the fascination with bottled water. Of course it is convenient to buy it while you are out and about,  but surely not necessary at home.

On top of that there are water fountains in most towns where you can fill up your bottles for free….why buy the stuff???

I think it is a waste of resources. What do you think?
