Sadly, Coca-Cola has fallen far short of its 2008 promise to put 25% recycled plastic in its bottles by 2015 - they only managed to get 7%.
Despite their bold recycling initiative, the company is busy going in exactly the opposite direction in their factory in Tanzania, currently re-tooling their factory there from glass bottles to plastic at great expense.
At 12:03, they announce a bold initiative in Jan '18 to have 50% recycled materials by 2030. Coke used to come in glass bottles, and Coke suppressed a report they commissioned which concluded, at 19:51 in the video, that glass bottles are far more environmentally friendly than plastic.
