Answer 1

The action that will help the most with the problem of plastic water bottles is drinking filtered tap water instead of bottled water. This choice directly reduces the demand for plastic bottles, which in turn decreases waste and the energy required for production. Recycling and reusing are helpful, but they don't address the root issue of consumption as effectively as switching to tap water.
