Survey on water consumption in ACT campus
Due to the relatively small size of our campus most of the bottled water is bought from the cafeteria which allows for accurate estimations to be made. By observing the daily consumption of water in the cafeteria for an entire week the following data was collected: Monday: 3.5 boxes Tuesday: 4.5 boxes Wednesday: 4.5 boxes Thursday: 4 boxes Friday: 3 boxes Legend: 1 box contains 24 bottles of 500ml plastic bottles of water. 1 plastic bottle of this type weighs 9gr. Having this data we know that on a weekly basis students consume 468 bottles of water which in turn becomes 4.2 kilograms of plastic waste. So if a project on eliminating bottled water consumption is actually implemented each month we would reduce the overall plastic waste by 17 kilograms.
