Closed-Loop Water Program

We are excited to introduce our upcoming Closed-Loop Aluminum Bottle program! This innovative initiative is designed to reduce plastic waste and promote sustainability in our community. Stay tuned for the official launch as we finalize the details to bring you an eco-friendly solution that combines convenience and environmental responsibility. Get ready to make a difference with us by choosing reusable aluminum bottles that are not only better for you but also better for the planet.

Overview of what the program is.

The Closed-Loop Aluminum Bottle program originated from our passion for reducing plastic waste in our community. It all began with a refillery, Lite Foot Company, where we implemented a reuse system that allowed people to obtain all their household supplies without the need for plastic bottles. Seeing the overwhelming community support for this initiative, we realized there was a shared desire for sustainable solutions. Inspired by this, we decided to tackle one of the biggest sources of plastic waste: single-use water bottles.

Our program introduces a sustainable alternative by replacing single-use plastic water bottles with durable, reusable aluminum bottles designed for repeated use. Through our closed-loop system, each bottle remains within a continuous cycle of use, collection, cleaning, and repurposing, minimizing environmental impact. We are partnering with local businesses, schools, and community organizations to distribute these bottles and promote a culture of reuse. Our goal is to empower the community to make environmentally friendly choices and contribute to a greener, more sustainable future.

Impact

The Closed-Loop Aluminum Bottle program is a transformative step towards sustainability and waste reduction in our community. Our primary goal is to replace 50,000 single-use plastic bottles with reusable aluminum bottles in the first year. This shift will significantly reduce the amount of plastic waste that ends up in our oceans and landfills, aligning with our commitment to environmental stewardship. By decreasing the demand for single-use plastics, we aim to reduce plastic waste by approximately 1.8 tons annually.

Additionally, we plan to foster a culture of reuse and recycling through strategic partnerships with local businesses, schools, and community organizations. Our target is to engage 30 local businesses and institutions in the program within the first year, promoting sustainable practices and enhancing community involvement. We will track retention rates and increase in business participation to ensure our program's effectiveness and growth. By creating a closed-loop system for our aluminum bottles, we are not only reducing waste but also supporting local economies through job creation in collection, cleaning, and redistribution. This holistic approach ensures that our program has a lasting positive impact on both the environment and the community. Together, we can make Savannah a leader in sustainability and create a cleaner, healthier planet for future generations.
