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

I was under the impression that only plastic Recycling was a sham and Recycling glass, cans and cardboard was good.

Ya but it isn’t the cans, glass bottles, and cardboard that’s causing permanent environmental damage. It’s plastic that we are manufacturing daily all for it to wind up in a landfill and the side of the road which finds its way into rivers, lakes , oceans and pretty much everywhere else.

The lack of recycling glass isn’t what’s killing us. It’s plastic.
