It's too bad the crowd that will totally agree with RFK Jr about every bad thing regarding microplastics will at the same cheer on the destruction of green energy projects and think climate change isn't a problem to be concerned about.
Meanwhile one of the largest factors in plastic bottles is their weight and therefore lower transport costs. Glass bottles are just too heavy when you burn dinosaur juice to move them. Aluminum helps but you also have to burn a fuckload of that same juice to make the energy to smelt it. If you had an electric truck and foundry fed by wind, solar, nuclear and such then you could pass a law like say, 0.50c tax on every plastic bottle, a lot of new ideas open up.
