48. European Trade Fair<br />
for the Beverage Industry<br />
The bottle was developed with input from the Sir<br />
Peter Blake Trust. Good Water supports the Trust by<br />
donating a percentage from the sale of every bottle<br />
sold in order to help fund the Trust’s environmental<br />
education programmes for young Kiwis (that’s how the<br />
New Zealanders call themselves).<br />
“Our goal is to have raised $1 million for the Trust<br />
by 2012. It forms a nice loop using an environmental<br />
initiative like Good Water to help fund teaching kids<br />
about the environment,” says Hall.<br />
Dubbed The Good Water Project, the objective of<br />
the company is to also recycle the bottles. Good Water<br />
currently recycles the bottles from its home and office<br />
delivery service launched earlier this year by sending<br />
them to a recycling plant in the North Island.<br />
“The aim is to help reduce the overwhelming amount<br />
of plastic bottles being sent to landfill each year in this<br />
country. Currently all plastic bottles put out for collection<br />
in New Zealand are bailed up and exported to Asia, with<br />
the rest going to landfill as they do not biodegrade or<br />
break down,” says Hall.<br />
He says that although more Kiwis are still needed<br />
to get behind The Good Water Project there has been<br />
a groundswell of interest with many Kiwis logging onto<br />
the company website to find out more.<br />
“What we have achieved as a company in such a short<br />
space of time is a testament to the innovation and drive<br />
behind the Good Water vision for sustainability, which<br />
is obviously shared by many Kiwis. As more and more<br />
people learn about what we are doing we find they are<br />
becoming emotionally connected to the project and are<br />
advocates in the marketplace. We’re touching people<br />
from all walks of life with the vision we have for this<br />
project.”<br />
