In 2016 the last Dairy Crest glass bottling plant will close with a loss of 200 jobs. From then on their doorstep deliveries of milk will arrive in disposable plastic rather than reusable glass bottles.
I am asking Dairy Crest to reconsider for the following reasons:
- Chemicals do not leach from glass as they do from plastic.
- Milk tastes better from a glass bottle.
- Glass bottles are reused.
- Plastic trash is increasing in unsustainable amounts.
- Only a percentage of plastic bottle are recycled.
- To save jobs.
.
If Dairy Crest stop delivering in glass many customers will have no reason to continue with this service. It may result in a loss of custom resulting in further job losses and impacting badly on a useful service that benefits the housebound and less mobile.
To demonstrate that there is a demand for glass bottles, please sign and share.
