A team of environmentally-aware residents has set up an initiative calling for free tap water in eating establishments in Luxembourg.

The "Free Tap Water in Luxembourg Restaurants" initiative, created just last week, is based on the Belgian campaign ("Free Tap Water In Belgian Restaurants") set up in February 2019. Both initiatives calI for restaurants and cafes to serve free tap water to customers on request, arguing that although tap water quality is excellent in Luxembourg and Belgium, many establishments refuse to serve it readily. 

Mirroring the Belgian campaign, the free tap water Luxembourg initiative encompasses a Facebook page, artwork and stickers. The founders have explained that they do not request that eating establishments stop serving bottled water, but rather that they at least offer free tap water as an alternative. In this way, the campaign hopes to both reduce plastic waste and offer customers a greater choice.
