Another symbolic act so that they can pretend they did something for the environment and don't have to actually tackle the major problems which could cut into profits of big companies.
Also anyone got fucked over by the bottle cap spinning in the way of the pour spilling drink all over the table?
This right here..
And actually, it wouldn't surprise me if the extra spillage caused by this change (for me it's the new attached caps on tetra packs, like on plant milk) is by design, just another way to get us to buy more product more often because 20% of it now ends up on the counter..
At this point you are just incompetent at pouring in a drink
It's a very easy change to make, yes the impact is small but why not take the easy stuff first? It's not like the EU isn't doing hard stuff as well (right to repair laws or gdpr anyone?)
This went from 20 to 100 real quick. While I agree with your point, I think it could be beneficial to everyone if you didn’t assume malice where ignorance is the more obvious motivator of the previous comment. I could be dead wrong and the person you replied to could indeed be an ableist bootlicker, but I lack the motivation to dive into their post history to find out. Just try and remember that aggression seldomly changes people’s minds and is more likely to cause them to dig in their heels and double down on their ignorant takes.
Well that escalated quickly
I can understand that being more difficult for anyone with disabilities. The point though was if it makes an impact for the environment and I'd still say it does, because to recycle you have to get the material back first and it being attached makes that more likely
Don't know where the corpo bootlicker stuff is coming from, no company is benefitting off this?
Anyway I hope the rest of your day is going better than it did until now
