Plastic needs to die. There's no point in designing a cap that goes into recycling reliably when we know recycling plastic just gets dumped in third world countries.
PET bottles are actually the most recycled or their plastic upcycled. But yeah, needs to die.
Maybe, but PET still contributes to the microplastics problem and I wouldn't be surprised if the recycling process adds more PET microplastics to the atmosphere so they can be carried around the planet.
Yeah, PET is great for recycling.
Here, 87% of all PET bottles are recycled.
wherew is that? come on dude if youre going to flex on your country's recyling rate with a specific percentage write the name of the dang country please
I live in the Nordics which all have a pretty good recycling rate overall.
the just started doing pfand return here in ireland for cans and plastic bottles, but not glass bottles (we throw those into a bottle bank)
Pant is great.
I don't understand why soft drinks are even sold in plastic bottles anymore. Cans work perfectly fine. Sure you might want to re-seal the lid or something but if that's the case just buy a reusable drink container.
plastic is cheap i guess?
Ding ding ding. Yet again we're paying for their externalized costs.
Aluminum cans are great but still use a plastic lining, so I'm not sure overall whether it comes out better. You still get microplastics.
