Concord Bans The Sale of Single-Serving Plastic Water Bottles

Concord, a town in the US, has banned the sale of single-serving plastic water bottles.

According to supporters, the ban is set to compel people to use tap water and reduce the number of plastic bottles in landfills.

By selling 20oz plastic water bottles, businesses are finding a way around the ban, which only covers 16oz or less.

Concord is said to be the first community in the US to outlaw the bottles, in a bid to improve the environment.
