I agree with the mission of this new cap, but my thoughts were this: Coca Cola, PepsiCo, these brands are… so inhumanly big, their budgets are SO extremely deep and large. And this cap? This cap is the best they could come up with? There is not a grain of my being that can believe that. What I do know about these corporations, is that they hate working together to reduce waste. Anytime a bottle deposit system is expanded they basically stamp the floor angrily until the law forces them to adapt or get out, at which point they use the new hated rules in their marketing as if the planet was all they were thinking about all along. Right…
This cap is essentially psychological warfare against the consumer, to form negative thoughts about being responsible with plastic waste. It’s purpose is to make you angry about the new rule, while still adhering to it.
Fuck you big food products inc, I hope we introduce a deposit system on fucking everything so you can all sit in the boardroom and cry about it.

If I was the EU, I’d force these shits to get back to 1.5L reusable glass bottles with metal caps.
Are u OK? How is it meant to make the consumer think they are responsible?
Causing annoyance to the user directs frustration towards the regulator and not the implementor.
Apple is doing this in the EU for example to “protest” recent regulations.
“This is annoying. Fuck those lefties for forcing me to have to deal with this, fOr ThE eNvIrOnMeNt.”
