    While I understand the sentiment I’m not sure how that’ll work for products like sanitizer wipes or shampoo without making them out of something like tin/aluminum. The wetness of the product would soak right through paper/cardboard. You could make use of tin/aluminum for those products but I dont see it being very cost effective, especially since most Americans dont recycle as it is.

    If there is a plastic-like substitute for situations like this I’d be happy to know about it though. Maybe theres some sort of eco-friendly alternative product out there I didnt know about before :)

      We will not get to 0 % plastic products or packaging. That shouldn‘t stop us from reducing it significantly, even if we have to look back to the mid 20th century to see how that works.
