Presumably that's because you can get water through other means, whereas the same can't be said about soda.

- bnralt 3y agoSoda fountains exist, are common, and predate plastic bottles. Even if they didn’t, I’m not sure the logic here. Drinking soda from a bottle is just as much an unnecessary luxury as drinking water from a bottle, in both situations a person could just drink water from the tap instead. But we’re going to allow people to harm the environment with unnecessary packaging as long as they also include unnecessary sugar (which also harms the environment), but we won’t allow the unnecessary packaging if it doesn’t have the unnecessary sugar?
