dc.description The study was conducted in Kinondoni Municipality, Dar es Salaam City, Tanzania. The aim of the study was to explore the potentials on provision of information on bottled mineral water and other beverages in order to improve its effective use in environmental management The specific objectives of the study were (i)To identify the existing information provided on the bottled mineral water and plastic bottled beverages (ii) to evaluate society’s awareness on the information provision and its influence on buying the selected products (iii) to assess the use of information provision in bottled mineral water and plastic bottled beverages in environmental management (iv) to identify the possible challenges against provision of information in the field environmental management. A cross sectional research design was adapted for this study. Primary data was collected using semi-structured questionnaires administered to 150 households while interview and checklist were used for key informants. The data obtained was analysed using Descriptive Analysis and Binary Logistics Regression. The findings suggested that there is no sufficient knowledge of these information provided on the bottled mineral water and beverages Results of the study indicated that consumer’s awareness on information provision on bottled mineral water and beverages is low. Understanding and lack of education on eco-labels have significant impact on awareness of eco-label. Also, government bodies involved in environmental management do not enforce much on information provision on these surveyed products. It is recommended that a government programme should be created to help improve households’ awareness, educate more on the use of information provision with regard to labels placed on the bottled mineral water and beverages
