Are these like milk cartons? How do they hold in the carbonation?
I remember paper straws from early elementary school in the 60’s.
I have an idea, how about glass bottles. Less dangerous chemicals in the manufacturing process.
Maybe they should just go back to glass bottles. Made from sand which is everywhere. Which can be pulverized back into sand. How much more recyclable can you get?
Would be better if you just drank water and avoided all the extra sugar and chemicals. Nasty stuff
Dont buy “Woke” Coke. Problem solved.
And why not glass bottles?
Refillable glass bottles created no waste, and the nickel deposit caused many a roadside to be picked up by teenagers to pay for gas!
Glass bottles. Hey they still work in the Philippines for both soft drinks and beer. Amazing that.
I read this the other day, its stupid.
Its still basically a plastic bottle.
I pondered this concept long ago. Eventually they should be able to come up with a container that easily degrades but still does its job. I wish them luck.
What is paper made out of again?
so they threw the rain forest under the bus?
“And here’s a trick: “The barrier must…ensure no [fibers] flake off into the liquid.””
Simply coat the paper bottle inside with pine pitch.
While Coke was once my choice for a cola I no longer use the product.
Can’t get enough fiber these days,, a little fiber with your drink never hurt.
Wait a minute. The fizz from a serving of Coca-Cola is - gasp! - escaping carbon dioxide! So just opening a Coca-Cola is destroying the planet.
If Coca-Cola really wanted to save Mother Earth, they’d quit their virtue-signaling and shut down all their factories. And they could plant daffodils in the lots where their workers once parked their cars.
(Hmm...that’s a pretty good analysis on my part. Maybe I should start a consulting agency.)
I thought recycling was supposed to remedy this. Where do the unclaimed deposits go? Does that have something to do with the law?
Tax
Remember the disasterous “new Coke” innovation.The company took a hit and had to backtrack. Now a “paper bottle” innovation. Its true that companies even with successful products need to constantly innovate. However when the innovation or change is Wok inspired, look for a bad product and some bad losses.
Right now, the most plastic sea pollution comes from the masks! They should be banned!
People are the major Earth destroyer anyway. If few die, that would help the Earth!
Save the Earth, ban the masks!
Anyway, paper does not decay in landfill too well and in its way, it generates a lot of methane.
