In Mexico City people would bring plastic bags with them and return glass bottles immediately, and just drink Coke out of plastic bags with a straw.

If your country had the German Pfand system where you pay 25 cent more per can and get it back if you return it, this would be expensive…

Coca Cola™ and Micro Plastics™ are a match made in heaven.

Well, if it was out of an aluminum can, it would already have microplastics from the plastic liner inside every can :D

They would flush down the cans to own the libs.

We have that in Ontario, and as a kid my cub/scout troop would go around town and ask people to give us their empties as a fundraiser. We’d return them and use the money to buy camping supplies and stuff.

Hey buddy! We never did this in scouts but that’s such a good idea. When I was in college my roommates and I could have used such a service. I actually just posted that there are people making a living off of combing the ditches and parks for empties. Bottle/can returns is a whole economy.
