Corona Fit Packs
Corona has found a novel way to counteract the scourge of the ecocidal plastic connector rings used to hold together packs of canned beverages.

I think what's great about this is not just the fact they are reducing plastic, but the fact they are willing to share that with everyone. That's what makes the difference, sharing the great idea's with everyone.

I don't see this taking off. The form factor is all wrong. How would you put a six pack in your shopping bag? It'd be an awkwardly shaped long tube. And frankly, the plastic problem is only a problem in third world countries where they don't dispose of it properly. So Americans and other modernized countries can reduce their plastic use till they're blue in the face and it won't make one iota of an impact on plastic in the oceans.

  Granted, if this takes off and is adopted by the polluting countries, great. But I can't see that happening because of the form factor problems.

  Men change with time. There are things that happened to a person in his childhood and years later they seem to him alien and strange. I am trying to decipher that child. Sometimes he is a stranger to me. When you think about when you were 14, don't you feel a certain alienation? If you wanted bread then why have a toaster oven. There will always be a drop of water somewhere.

(place your logo here) but please do not stop buying our product with your hard earned fake money that our governments print for us. please ?

  In Christianity, we atone for our sins by admitting them before Christ and accepting the sacrifice of his life on our behalf. In our post-christian world we atone for our sins by citing our belief in and adherence to the religious dogma that humans are a cancer on the plane who "consume/produce too much". Apparently just living on Earth is an irredeemable sin now. 🙄

what a load of BS. they just found/bought the packaging idea and added the greenwash/bluewash com/PR angle to it to overcome the fact that it's NOT such a good idea overall if you buy the idea you just have a weak mind, if you buy the beer, you just like to drink p
