Most people agree that we can no longer afford to produce trillions of items packaged in a material that will last for generations and that we will only use for a few minutes or seconds before being discarded.

Plastic bottles and bags don't typically get turned into bottles and bags, but the myth that they will is one of the biggest barriers to real solutions.

At a tour of ECO Skywater this week in Barbados, I learned that this bottle is made entirely from sugar, with the label printed using food coloring, and it composts in something like 30 days, so no landfill.

So, Coca Cola, and others, get serious about sustainability.
