This week's Picture News (1st March 2021) is:
'Should we choose products based on their packaging?'
The Coca-Cola company is testing a new paper bottle as part of a long-term strategy to remove plastic from its packaging. The sample bottle is made by a Danish company from an extra-strong paper shell that still contains a thin plastic liner. The overall ambition is to create a 100% recyclable, plastic-free bottle capable of preventing gas escaping from carbonated drinks.
Things to talk about at home…
- Can you make a list of different objects/food that have packaging? What was the packaging made of? What did you do with the packaging?
- Can you think of different reasons why we have packaging?
- Would the type of packaging a product is in impact on your decision to buy the product? Why?
