Dear Coca Cola,
I have a concern about your sustainability as you have already failed to recycle only a very small percentage of your plastic packaging, your company has also been titled as the world's biggest plastic pollutant since you produce over 200,000 plastic bottles a minute and an equivalent of 3 million tons of plastic packaging every year. Although your company says that you are trying to solve the plastic problem Coca Cola is actually taking steps to make it worse. Samoa has no recycling facilities but your company in this country had stopped using reusable glass bottles but suddenly has decide to make them single use plastic bottles.
You had also resisted the suggestion of going from plastic bottles to aluminium cans for your beverages. Even though aluminium can be recycled endlessly you have selected to use single use plastic bottles that can't be recycled and will end up in landfill. Not only you are the world's biggest plastic pollutant you also have a great effect on climate change as most of your bottles are not recycled but burned or ended up in landfill. It greatly disappoints me that a popular company like you can't understand the bad causes you can cause to the Earth. There can be many suggestions on making your company eco-friendly and popular. Like making your plastic bottles reusable aluminium cans or donating at least one fifth of your money to a company who is trying to do something useful for the environment.I hope you understand, and I hope you make some changes. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely
