Is great having the support of Wellington City Council - without them and Wellington Community Trust we wouldn't have been able to grow the #refillution 🌱💧We’re proud supporters of Refill NZ, on a mission to reduce plastic by encouraging bars, restaurants and cafes to provide free tap water to refill bottles.
So we’re super proud to announce they are finalists in the 2019 Keep NZ Beautiful Awards.
Pōneke para kore.

Christchurch Airport is leading the way in the war against plastic. They are considering following in San Francisco International Airport’s footsteps by banning plastic water bottles.🚫 Christchurch Airport already encourages the reuse of bottles with drinking fountain taps around the terminal for refilling.🚰 Water bottles can be carried through to the domestic lounge. And, passengers travelling internationally can tip their water out at waste stations at the departure entrance, clear security and refill on the other side.💧Absolutely brilliant.🙌🏆We hope that Wellington International Airport, Auckland Airport and other airports around NZ will follow suit.✈️ ...
