An Australian town has voted to ban bottled water!!!!!! Courageous, SENSIBLE, and one of the better news that has emerged this week. This is an example of how democracy can be used to challenge capitalism's less-desirable impulses.
Update
Right after I saved the post, an ad by google for "Fiji Water" appeared on my screen. How ironic.
Hilarious! My friend's father is a civil engineer (not sure how that relates to drinking water exactly, but he said this as if it were pertinent!) and he says that there's NO reason to buy bottled water... our water is perfectly potable, and is great!
