Dijon has launched its campaign which aims to encourage the consumption of tap water by residents. To this end, 10,000 copies of a “Dijon Water from Dijon” carafe have been produced. 7,000 of them will be distributed free of charge to cafes, restaurants and catering hotels using a non-polluting and silent means of transport. Because this operation is part of a sustainable development approach. The remaining decanters can be won on Saturdays June 27 and July 4 on the Dijon market by its inhabitants. To do this, they will just have to answer the blind tasting test of different waters on water bars specially installed for the occasion. This event completes the water recovery system in schools where 39 faucets will be installed by the Lyonnaise des eaux. They will also help fight against childhood obesity.
