Did you know, in 2018, almost 480 billion of plastic bottles were sold? That's almost 1 million every minute.

\n

In this episode of the Sustainability Matters Today podcast, I interviewed Scott Edwards, founder and CEO of Drop Water and #Champion of Compostable Water Bottles.

\n

Drop Water is making bottled water more sustainable with their unique packaging and manufacturing methods. 

\n

For their innovation, Scott and his team won the silver prize for the 2018 FedEx Small Business Grant Contest beating 7,800 other applicants. 

\n

You can get Drop Water beverages from Drop Kiosks currently found in both terminals at the San Jose Airport and a Kiosk was recently added into the San Francisco Airport.
