A key highlight of her discussion was the “Every Bottle Back” initiative, a collaborative effort by America’s leading beverage companies to reduce the industry’s use of new plastic by improving the collection of 100% recyclable plastic bottles. This initiative aims to ensure that these bottles are collected, remade into new ones, and kept out of our oceans and landfills.
