  1. What really irks me is that non-toxic bio-degradable plastic is available for everyone to use…yet the powers that be refuse to implement this sane option…same with the lining in cans…this smacks of depraved indifference & psychopathic behavior that leaves our children’s children & a myriad of lifeforms to the preventable yet extremely deleterious effects of corptocratic greed….it really sucks & these board room directors need to be arrested for crimes against humanity & all the rest of the sentient beings on this beautiful planet….they have no shame these sociopaths.

    Aluminum? Aluminum has found to being absorbed by the sodas. So we’re drinking the aluminum, which is a heavy metal. Not good. Steel isn’t much better. So get rid of those two choices. I remember a time in my young childhood (late 70s/early 80s) when milk was delivered in glass bottles to my house. That was also back when (researched for proofs sake) that every major city and a lot of urban ones had a glass cleaning facility for the bottles. The bottles would be taken there, cleaned and sandblasted, then sent back out. Recycling. But the Greatest Generation deemed it was too expensive, so they stopped it for plastic. Baby Boomers didn’t do anything about it, except for the Chicago Milk/ice cream guy, who’s milk does come in glass bottles (name escapes me). It’s time for gen X & Y to bring it back. Go back to the ways that worked, helped the planet, maintained the balance, and put people back to work.

  3. I have made many changes to reduce use of plastic. There is no plastic in my kitchen and I drink spring water from glass bottles I fill at the source. I use cloth produce bags and cloth grocery bags. I don’t eat processed foods for the most part. I cook from scratch and use fresh organic produce. The problem I wrestle with is plastic packaging. It is not recyclable and almost impossible to buy some produce and other household goods without plastic packaging. Do you know of anyone who recycles it? I have tried to clean it and put it with recyclable grocery bags at the local store, but I am fairly sure they just throw it away. It is the only trash I produce and it is upsetting.
