All UK airports should provide drinking water (tap water) refilling stations.
Travelers can not take more than 100ml of fluid through security check points at airports and millions of plastic bottles are dumped prior to the security check. Airports should provide a drain point to pour water away prior to the security gate. Then provide a water refilling station afterwards.
Airports providing a free tap water refilling station after the security gate will allow millions plastic bottles can re refilled and reused stopping the massive waste of plastic bottles. Hopefully this will educate people to hang on to bottles and reuse them. Airports won't have to dispose of all the bottles thrown away prior to the security check points.
