So, is it okay to refill a plastic water bottle? Yes, with a healthy dash of common sense. Embrace the refill, wash it like you actually care about yourself, and know when to let go. You’ve got this.
You’re already doing more than most people by even thinking about this. So go ahead, take that thirsty step forward. Refill that bottle, take a long, cool sip, and give yourself a little pat on the back. You’re saving the planet, one not-disgusting gulp at a time. Cheers to you, you glorious, slightly paranoid water warrior.
