Each year, millions of dollars are made off single use water bottles at theme parks such as Universal Studios, Disneyland/world, and Six flags theme parks. These one time use bottles cause tons of plastic to be put into landfills throughout the country.

This petition is to ask the operators of Universal Studios Hollywood (and their parent company NBC/Universal) to install water bottle filling stations across their theme parks. If you look at current state of the drinking fountains at Universal Studios Hollywood, there is barely enough pressure to fill up one waterbottle in under 2 minutes, with the inability to fully fill it without the use of a secondary cup. Though it may cut into the profits of NBC/Universal, I am petitioning them to help save the environment by making an investment into adding in these machines by the existing drinking fountains throughout the park.

If one theme park sees the environmental impact they are able to have just by adding these to their infrastructure, maybe there is a chance that other attractions will follow suit including Disneyland/world, Six Flags, and other large scale theme parks.

We will not try to direct USH on if they should also distribute cups but they could put into their park FAQ (know before you go) that visitors could bring waterbottles into the park and have them refilled (at no cost) to the visitor. This would show their commitment to green initiates and be a model for other theme parks to follow.

This petition should be presented to the CEO of Universal Studios Hollywood - Karen Irwin.
