Easier to recycle, cheaper, trendy, new look, what? I was under the impression that aluminum was costly to first process. This article basically looks like a press release from Coke. I would like some detail about the how's and why's. Thanks Why are they going away from plastic and towards aluminum? Easier to recycle, cheaper, trendy, new look, what?
