The American Beverage Association (ABA)--key representative of Coke (owner of Dasani bottled water)--responds to our efforts to help national parks go bottled water free, including the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA). The front group wants to meet with GGNRA officials, the same tactic it used to try to stop the Grand Canyon from going bottled water free in 2011.

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
