Jean Hill of Concord, Massachusetts is proposing a ban on the sale of plastic water bottles. She first spoke at a town meeting in April 2010, taking the initiative to start helping the environment. Many voters have turned out to support her plan but the town is unsure what to do. The most noteworthy part is that bottled water manufactures are also involved. Hill plans to begin the ban on selling plastic water bottles on January 1, 2011. If this passes, a lawsuit may be on Concord’s hands from the bottled water industry.
