Think Outside the Bottle

The Think Outside the Bottle campaign promotes, protects and ensures public funding for our public water systems and challenges the misleading marketing of the bottled-water industry.

With public officials, faith groups, restaurants, celebrities, campuses and individuals, we work to support public systems by opting for tap over bottled water.

We are asking people like you to Think Outside the Bottle by pledging to opt for tap over bottled water. Learn More

Mayor RT Rybak

"Government's role is to provide quality water. It’s our job to remind people: you don’t  need to spend all that money and generate all that plastic garbage. Instead, turn on the tap.  One of the many things I love about the Think Outside The Bottle campaign is that it reminds us to get our priorities straight."

Mayor R.T. Rybak, Minneapolis
