Government launches new initiative to improve taste of tap water.
The government of Malta, the small island country in Southern Europe located in the Mediterranean Sea, between Sicily and North Africa, has launched a new initiative to improve the taste of local tap water as it strives to increase the consumption of tap water.
“We have delivered on our promise to provide the best tap water this country has ever had. Now, we want to see Maltese families fully embrace this resource by installing activated carbon filters that further improve taste. Government will be helping people to acquire these filters,” Environment and Energy Minister Miriam Dalli said on Thursday.
Backed by significant improvements in water taste across the Maltese islands, the use of a simple activated carbon filter will make drinking tap water easier. Through the Regulator for Energy and Water Services, an updated tap water scheme was also launched, Dalli’s ministry said in a statement.
