A small town named Bundanoon in Australia has decided to stop the sale of bottled water（瓶装水）. The government(政府) says that bottled water can cause(引起) environmental problems. The factories use too many resources（资源）to make bottled water. When people finish drinking the water, they throw the bottles everywhere. So the government asks the native people to stop buying bottled water and use tap water(自来水) to drink. The government also encourages visitors to get water from water stations in the main streets, and fill the water in bottles that can be used again. All the shopkeepers in the town support（支持）the decision. Bundanoon is the world’s first town that has got its shops to stop selling bottled water. Probably we should follow the example. Let’s stop buying bottled water and use tap water!
