A quick walk around the neighborhood after a holiday on garbage collection day shows overflowing bins.
One of the main reasons is the huge amount of boxes and packaging being thrown out.
What a waste?
In the UK (not sure they are also offered in other countries), Cadbury thinks out of the box with ‘eco-egg’ according to Simon Bowers (The Guardian).
They will sell these Easter Eggs plainly wrapped in foil, no box, no plastic.
Doing good by reducing their packaging and the pollution and waste they generate will also benefit Cadbury’s bottom line.
What other big brands are following the same path?
Another positive side effect is you will not have to struggle with plastic shells and possibly cut yourself in the process.
That’s it for Green Day # 17
