Petition Bottled water - eco tax

More details

Putting water in plastic bottles and then shipping, flying, driving and hauling it around is an envoirenmental disgrace. UK tap water is perfectly healthy. The entire bottled water industry is a perfect example of the commercial world creating a need for something we don't need, let alone the damnage it does to the envoirenment.
The concept of an eco tax is well established.
I would like to see an eco tax levied on all bottled water and the money spent on saving the planet.
