Theres a plastic lining in aluminium cans too. So glass is the way.
It's quite thin for aluminum, and the downside with glass is the high energy cost of melting it. I'd like if we went back to washing and reusing bottles, but I suppose that's a big shift in processing capabilities.
McD should have a deposit system in Germany, but haven’t been there since ragulations cganged
there are plenty of beverage companies that simply wash and reuse glass bottles
There's plastic in bottle caps :)
Not 100% win though:
Glass bottles of lemonade, iced tea, soft drinks and beer contained on average around 100 microplastic particles per litre, which is between five and 50 times more than plastic bottles or cans. Source
Forgive any ignorance or arrogance on my part, I'm not a materials scientist at all, but wouldn't the plastic caps on plastic bottles also have the same deleterious effect?
I didn't read anything in there about them exploring the source of the plastic particulates in plastic bottles. Whether from the bottle or from the cap too.
The cap is actually much worse than the bottle because the mechanical twisting motion abrades the surfaces, so yes it turns yes out you can badly contaminate a whole bottle of liquid with a simple bottlecap.
and tin cans. i think with tin it might be wax though
Epoxy resin. Which is basically plastic. Arguably worse because of BPA
