Think Outside the Bottle is joining communities around the world working to keep water bottlers and water corporations out, and to protect the human right to water.
A lot of people don’t even realize that there IS a water industry. That’s why we’re starting by exposing the dangerous reality behind the image of bottled water, and mobilizing people to demand that these corporations stop their irresponsible and dangerous actions.
If corporations control our water, they can decide who gets it—and who doesn’t. Decisions about a life-giving substance and a fundamental human right must not be left to corporate shareholders and executives unaccountable to the public. The Tap Water Challenge was developed as a way to educate and engage our fellow community members about this critical corporate accountability, human rights and environmental issue.
The Tap Water challenge turns the tables on the bottled water market with our Tap Water Challenges. People take a blind-folded test that pits pricey bottled water against good ole’ tap water, and most people find that they can’t tell the difference!
The Tap Water Challenge has taken place in dozens of cities across the country, involving thousands of people and reaching millions more through numerous news stories. This is a highly effective, awareness-raising tool, and you can bring it to your community, too.
The event works best in community areas with high visibility and lots of foot traffic. Typically, 4 hours is needed for the event itself, which includes set-up, the Tap Water Challenge, breakdown and a volunteer debrief.
