Eaton, Hong Kong suspends the use of plastic bottled water

Eaton Hotel, Hong Kong has invested HK$500,000 on the installation of an eco-friendly drinking water purification system that allows glass bottles to be re-used and suspended the use of plastic bottled water.

This is a great initiative and should save 350,000 plastic bottles each year from landfill, a positive result for our environment.

Katrina Cheng, Eatons Environmental Officer believes the $500,000 will be covered over the first two years as they no longer have to purchase hundreds of plastic bottles every month.
