The two tobacco companies Altria and Philip Morris International combined made up 2% of the branded plastic litter found, both Danone and Nestlé each produced 3% of it, PepsiCo was responsible for 5% of the discarded packaging, and 11% of branded plastic waste could be traced to the Coca-Cola company.

    Don’t forget the big plastic bubble bags they use to pad the product inside.

    In my experience, they send your purchase in a box that’s easily 4x the necessary size, with the padding bubbles taking up the rest of the space.

      I’ve gotten a mix of bubble and paper cardboard but your right. Not just the padding but also the bubble bags they occasionally ship smaller stuff in.
