Wat? It’s great if it gets recycled, but it works if it gets reused

[–] MrSmith@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Glass = heavy. More transport pollution, more manufacturing pollution.

While glass is high in recyclability, all hinges on where it's coming from and where it's going (to be recycled).

Best container is the one you can bring from home.

Still the point stands that you can reuse glass a lot than plastic before you have to recycle it. (Glass up to 50 times and PET up to 20 times.) Transport pollution is a solvable problem, but they definitely require more energy to get transported.

And the point is still that reusable works no matter how it gets produced and recycled, since it avoids the production of a lot of new bottles.

Edit: Okay, production and transport of course matter, but energy needed for production needs to be divided by the average amount of use plus the transport for every cycle plus the energy needed for cleaning.

Bringing your own stuff is definitely the best way, yes. That would require special filling stations, which I don’t see coming anytime soon. I’ve only seen tests for bringing your own container with dry and pourable stuff, but that may require standardized containers for weighing if I remember correctly. At least in supermarkets.
