Single-use plastic bottles are a huge problem anywhere in the world. They are used only once before they are thrown away or recycled. While recycling helps to reduce pollution caused by single-use plastic bottles, in Tioman Island we want to reduce the usage of single-use plastic bottles. To achieve this, drinking water refill stations were set up at many locations around Tioman.
In each village, there are 2 to 3 water refill stations, accessible and visible to everyone. Each water refill station has two nozzles to refill water bottle, providing both hot and cold water. In addition to water refill stations set up by Reef Check Malaysia, many chalet or resort operators support the effort by providing water refill facility or service to their guests.
