A brief description of the single-use disposable plastics that have been banned or eliminated:
In September 2015, York University phased out the sale of single use plastic water bottles from its campuses. This action was in response to the student led "Take Back the Tap" campaign, in which many schools across North America advocated for a more socially conscious approach to drinking water.
