The emails I get from the administration remain cold and repetitive. I am exhausted by their refusal to acknowledge the plastic waste piling up on our campus. I am going to keep pressing forward because the reality of our environment will not wait for them to decide it is convenient.

Reaching this level of support has been a long and exhausting process. Seeing so many people agree that we need to stop selling bottled water on campus gives me the resolve to keep pushing forward despite the pushback.

Been wanting this for a long time. Glad someone is finally doing something about all the plastic bottles in the bins.

Why are we still spending money on this stuff when the water fountains work perfectly fine? Stop selling them.

Plastic waste is everywhere on campus. It just makes sense to carry a reusable bottle instead.
