Rejected petition dot water fountains around London to reduce using plastic bottles.

About 8 million metric tons of plastic are thrown into the ocean annually. Animals that depend on the ocean mistake these plastics as food and end up risking their lives by eating them. If we place more water fountains in the city, we can reduce the use of plastic and help save our world.
