It is solved.

No more bottles.

Now the can issue.

Great plan. Instead of the glass bottles, the aluminium cans will pile up. This despite the fact that it is much easier to reuse and recycle glass bottles...

???????? Definitely.

Luckily this is only for the silly tourists, I always get a frozen glass with it on all islands in that area. Hate drinking from cans.

From an island perspective I think aluminium is much smarter than glass. You can compress all the cans on the island resulting in much less volume and weight to transport it back to the mainland and recycle. Not all fast or easy solutions are better, same solar being overrated as of all the issues the old panels cause as well the batteries. Not to mention the damage done mining what is needed for these panels and batteries compared to oil, most existing after water.

Isn't this upside down ???

 

Glass is perhaps the most environmentally and trash-free of all the potential receptacles. 

The beach is basically made up of 'glass'... 

 

The logic behind this is preposterous, it is perhaps only vaguely understandable how some such policy can be put place after living here and seeing the irrational and utterly illogical decisions take effect.

 

Even can's have plastic inside them....   

 

 

Cans are made of aluminium. One of the most abundant elements on earth.
