TapIt – Refill Your Water Bottles for Free

Once upon a time it was considered “cool” to only drink bottled water.
The opposite is now true, as the effect of single use water bottles on the environment is being increasingly taken seriously.
TapIt is an initiative in New York that allows consumers to refill their water bottles at participating cafes for free.
Using either their website or a handy iPhone application, New Yorkers can not only find out where the cafes are but also information on the water itself (for example, whether it’s room temperature or chilled, or whether it’s filtered or not).
This is such a simple idea that can surely be undertaken anywhere!
