Yeah now that you mention it, I remember that, it was way more annoying when I ripped them off…

That’s what I was thinking I never separate it. But I saw people collecting huge amounts of bottles for the deposit and they separate it to flatten the bottles to fit more into one plastic bag to return

Somebody commented a YouTube video with a cap that looked like it had a better hinge, maybe that could solve it?

I get what you mean. I think if it’s on the side like on the picture it’s not too bad

Cool, so it’s already spreading even before they have to change it in 2024

I haven’t seen those yet, but I just read that nestea will disappear as an ice tea brand. Maybe just in Germany?

Yeah I’ve noticed it more and more as well, at first I thought it was kinda weird, then I got it. I came across an article today so I thought I would share if someone was wondering why they are doing it.

I’m not sure but apparently not? They couldn’t be this stupid, could they? Or maybe some new machines make it easy to separate them at the recycling plant if they aren’t burned…

Right? I thought so, too. They’re also explaining the change of the caps by printing things like “please keep me attached” on them

Every little bit helps, even if people are already recycling bottles including caps, this will probably increase the recycled caps.
