I have not yet read the article, but I initially understood that the thickness of the bottles, and thus plastic used, has decreased. This would be a win for use-and-trash water bottles like for restaurants or tourist spots, because it would reduce pricing and pollution.
because it would reduce pricing and pollution.
I will doubt the reduced price will get to the buyer. And if i am honest 1 time bottles should be reduced at all and rather moved to multi use thicker hard plastic bottles, that can be reused multiple times.
