Soft drinks makers admit more needs to be done to stop people discarding single-use plastic bottles.
The biggest brand Coca-Cola is under fire for refusing to disclose how much plastic it produces.
“All plastic bottles are 100% recyclable so it is important that consumers are encouraged to dispose of bottles responsibly."
Obviously customers are not responsible enough, so that plan has failed. A simple alternative is the use of old-fashioned glass bottles: it does less damage.
