contradiction?

This term we arrived to this sign at the cafeteria. I never had my camera while I was there. Monday, I did.

Last year the kids at NCC started a ban-the-bottle campaign. (Wow, you should have seen the brochure. Clearly none of them were designers.) They were selling refillable bottles with the logo for a buck. Not bad. But they were plastic. (I think that's an oxymoron, right.) A lot of bottle refillstations have appeared all over campus.

Plastic bottles a huge problem. And students are horrible about recycling. You would never known that most of these kids grew up with recycling as the norm. But the reality is there are a lot of other beverages in the cafe that are in plastic bottles. Why not ban them all? If you're going to ban plastic bottles, then ban them. Period.

And more problematic is "NCC Bans Plastic Water  Bottles" statement. They are is still in EVERY coin operated machine. Seems like a contradiction to me.
