Bottled Water 101

In a recent episode, Katie Couric talks to “Tapped” filmmaker Stephanie Soechtig and Joe Doss, president of the International Bottled Water Association, and asks them pressing questions about the new film and what the IBWA has to say about it. If you’ve got a half hour, this debate will educate you on both sides of the story and hopefully leave you with one clear take-away, that we need to eliminate plastic from our daily lives and start to make reusable choices. Klean Kanteen was thrilled to be asked to be the bottle of choice for the staff and tour of ”Tapped” and proud to share their mission.

Klean Kanteen also worked with Pickathon, Portland’s indie roots festival, which took place this past weekend, to make it the first plastic-free music festival ever. Take a look at the photos below to get a glimpse of the new Klean Kanteen Festival Cup, a stainless steel pint glass, in action and see what we hope will be the future of sustainable music festivals.

Pickathon Photos-more to come!

All the cups were personalized via Sharpie and left on large vertical drying racks when not being used.
