In conjunction with the national day of action against bottled water organized by the Polaris Institute and the Sierra Youth Coalition yesterday OPIRG hosted a water taste test on campus. Students drank samples of both Aquafina and Brock University Tap Water. 71% of students whom participated correctly identified the source of the water they drank. Many students commented on the smell of chlorine in the tap water sample.
Participants entered a raffle to win 1 of 2 stainless steel water bottles. The winners of the raffle are Emily Mazi, and Gerrad Downs.
