So bottle caps are still an issue?
And am I now supposed to be for or against it? Also: Why?
SamuelJohnson@samueljohnson @matt @aral
So we love them for the little positive effect they have and not hate them for the massive #greenwashing of statistics they are intended for, effectively halving the amount of *seperate* pieces of trash that end up anywhere but the trash?
Just asking, guys.
Glad we're not stuck on the "I can't drink out of a bottle with these connected caps"-non-issue of the discussion anymore.
Wait, looks like we are.
@s10n @matt @aral Sorry, I don't understand your objection. It seems there is nothing the EU does that doesn't irritate some people bc it's too much or not enough.
The vast bulk of bottle caps are now recycled, along with the rest of plastic bottles on which a deposit is now paid. To many morons, the kind that likes to toss such things out car windows, this is tyranny. If they were responsible people we wouldn't need tethered caps and deposits.
Paavi (ei se paavi)@samueljohnson @s10n @matt @aral It's also often a bliss that I no longer accidentally drop a bottle cap while drinking and or handling the cap. Less stress when I don't want to finish the contents in one go and carry the bottle some distance. (Though just last week I wss served a bottle of water with an old style cap on a train in Germany. No idea why.)
