I know what the future is: returnable glass bottles with a deposit.
It worked in 1970 and it can work now, if someone can kick the industry up
the backside to (re)organise it.


Works in Norway and Austria.

Actually in Norway they go better than that - plastic bottles and drink cans
have a deposit on them too, and the plastic pop bottles are
returnable/reusable (they're a little bit stouter than the ones we have
here).

cheers,
