ReSource: plastic member companies including Coca-Cola eliminated over half of their problematic plastic from 2018-2020

KATHMANDU: A new report from World Wildlife Fund (WWF) finds that Principal Members in the organization’s ReSource: Plastic program – The Coca-Cola Company, Keurig Dr. Pepper, McDonald’s Corporation, Procter & Gamble, and Starbucks– cut their use of problematic plastic by 57% between 2018 and 2020.

This significant reduction, which totaled 71,000 metric tons, included the elimination of material transformation of hard-to-recycle small items like straws, utensils, and materials like rigid foam and vinyl.
