18-year-old called Amel Talha made up this hashtag after seeing a Twitter post from her friend, Jason Prince
He tweeted: “20 minutes to fill this 1-liter bottle in an area of less than 50m. This is extremely serious.”
“#FillTheBottle would be cool I think,” Amel Talha tweeted and started a trend. “I think it is very important to make people realise that this movement is here to make them wake up, make them realise that the situation is critical, that we have to do something and now,” she told LADbible.
