If you can't outright solve a problem you shouldn't try to improve the situation >:(
How is this improving the situation. Do people only throw away the caps? I think this is just some stupid law so that they can say they tried. I still think soda cans are just a better solution and make it mandatory that companies recycle their own waste.
Well yes, many throw caps and bottle separately and the people that throw their trash anywhere will certainly not care about the caps.
Lol.
In what country is it mandatory for companies to recycle soda cans ?
Germany, actually lol
Just to get this straight, in Germany if coca cola sells a can of coke to a consumer and that it is somehow returned to them through a deposit scheme or something they are legally bound to recycle entirely that aluminium foil ?
If that's the case that's amazing but in many countries in Europe a lot of effort is done to collect recyclable stuff but that certainly does not mean it will be recycled.
There is a vast difference between something being mandatory to put in the recycling bin and it actually being recycled for real.
Sweden.
Denmark lol
