After 61 Years, Sprite Will No Longer Be Sold in Green Bottles.<\/p>\n

The Coca-Cola Company has announced that, beginning next week, they’re changing Sprite’s packaging to clear plastic bottles because the green bottles, ironically, aren’t GREEN enough.<\/p>\n

The green bottles are recyclable, but because of the additives in the plastic to change the color, it has to be separated from other plastic to be repurposed . . . and that creates a lot of headaches and unnecessary waste. The green bottles will also be dropped from other Coca-Cola products, including Mello Yello, Fresca and Seagram’s Ginger Ale.<\/p>\n
