High school MEA Central has stopped selling bottled water to try and cut down on plastic waste.
It has 1,000 pupils so was getting through hundreds of bottles a week - at least. Since the start of term it's been asking kids to bring their own drinks, and it'll also have more water fountains. This is just one step by the school, not part of a wider campaign such as Plastic Free Schools which is run by Surfers Against Sewage. So far 3,322 schools across the country have signed up, but none in Levenshulme. The nearest are Stanley Grove in Longsight, and Cedar Mount, Gorton.
