Individuals to Sign the University of Toronto Bottled Water Free

Given that bottled water consumption involves serious health,
environmental, and social consequences, and

Given that water is an internationally recognized human right that
should be publicly available for all, and

Given that Toronto is home to some of the cleanest, safest tap water
in the world,

We call on the University of Toronto to end the sale and distribution
of bottled water on our campus. The University should establish a
timeline for phasing out bottled water, and this timeline should be
established no later than March 22, 2011, in honour of World Water
Day.

Such a resolution must also include a commitment to upgrade or install
new public water facilities where buildings are lacking.

To show our dedication to this issue, I am signing the petition to end the
sale and distribution of bottled water at the University of Toronto.

The University of Toronto prides itself on being a progressive,
socially informed, and environmentally responsible university. It is
time to show that commitment.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
