Mt. Shasta is at a pivotal turning point, we know that single use plastic is devastating the environment and most plastic is NOT recycled. W.A.T.E.R. is working with local agencies and businesses to reduce plastic use right here in Mt. Shasta.

During last July 4th’s walk/run, the Mountain Runners stopped distributing single use water bottles in favor of water refill stations, greatly reducing the amount of plastic waste from that event. What an exciting shift!  W.A.T.E.R. then worked with the City of Mt. Shasta Beautification Committee and City Council who approved a water bottle refill station and ADA Drinking Fountain Water Bottle Refill Station & ADA drinking fountain for humans and dogs at the NW corner of Parker Plaza. This will help reduce plastic waste from future downtown events.  Your contributions to W.A.T.E.R. will help ensure installation this coming summer as well as support our many other projects designed to protect our alpine home.  Thank you for your generosity!
