Would companies do it ?

Or would they force it to avoid those kind of answers ?

    Forcing companies to not use plastic packaging will not somehow make the same product available at the same price. They will raise prices because the alternative is going to cost them more or again… they would already be doing it. Those people would then “die” anyways as the prices rise.

    Your logic is shit.

    People can definitely continue to stay alive with less polluting personal choices, but choose not to every single day., I rarely see broke vegetarians for example, despite a true vegetarian diet (meat replacement products are expensive and do not count) being significantly cheaper than a meat based one and MASSIVELY more environmentally friendly.

      ‘because the alternative is going to cost them more’

      This is one of those things that you have to let go of. While it makes sense, it is not a guiding factor for corporate decisions.
