Good, the packages can't even be recycled. Corporations should be held liable for their plastic waste contributions via the packaging.
You think the bottles are going to be any better? They're going to end up in the ocean with all of the other plastic bottles from other drinks.
No, glass or stainless steel
Not aluminum? Have you ever seen single serving drinks sold in stainless steel?
Single serving things should be illegal, only things needs to be single serving is shit found in a hospital
Single serving containers for food have their place, but there's nothing that can't be stored in either wax paper, aluminum, or glass(in that order). Aluminum is probably the best balance between recyclability and weight(fuel need to transport . You can even make aluminum "bottles" that fit in preexisting vending machines.
No, single serving bulkshit should be illegal. Other than convience there is 0 need.
You could do the same with glass too, and as I've stated previously, aluminum needs a barrier, and normally is plastic
Those bottles in the image look like plastic. I can't find anything indicating they are using glass or stainless steel.
PET bottles are very easily recicled. In my country a sizeable amount of PET bottles sold are 100%recycled PET
But only a small fraction of the plastic gets recycled.
If 9/10ths of the plastic ends up in a landfill or the Pacific garbage patch, having 1/10th of that plastic recycled into another bottle (which then will eventually have 9/10ths tossed in a landfill anyways) isn't doing much. It's better than not recycling at all, but it's green washing to say that it's "eco friendly", which Capri-Sun allegedly did at this trade show.
Any plastic should be considered unrecyclable. At least pouches use less overall plastic then bottles.
Most plastics are difficult (if at all possible) to recycle.
I agree. Fixed my grammar.
you only need to make them pay the price of each packaging every day until it biodegrades. you'll see change very quickly.
They'll spend 300millions in lawyer fees to find a loophole where they only need to pay one packet for the time it takes to burn.
