Thoughts? I am currently trying to avoid using plastic packed drinks as much as possible due to it’s limited and finite recycle count

    Do you mean in things like plastic water bottles or other beverage containers like plastic bottles containing soda?

        Well when it comes to water I feel like it has a lot to do with corporate events and advertising. If you are in Florida for example and the water tastes like it’s been filtered with dead fish you might be more inclined to grab a bottle.

        As for soda I think it has a lot to do with the cost of using glass bottles. People don’t really get them refilled. They just recycle them.

          But that’s how it ia supposed to work, you drop them off at the place where you buy new stuff. They get them refilled and restocked.

            Yeah but I feel like that died out with cocaine in Coca Cola for the most part at least in the US
