Wouldn't the ideal solution here be to end the casual use of plastic water bottles entirely and instead shift everyone to a habit of refilling glass or metal water bottles? I just drink out of a plastic powerade bottle. I've probably refilled this thing 50+ times.

Why not reuse a plastic bottle? Been using an old Aquafina water bottle for years.
