I imagine all plastics will be out of the question. I’m wondering about what ways food packaging might become regulated to upcycling in the domestic or even commercial space. Assuming energy remains a $ scarce $ commodity I don’t imagine recycling glass will be super practical as a replacement. Do we move to more unpackaged goods and bring our own containers to fill at markets? Do we start running two way logistics chains where a more durable glass container is bought and returned to market? How do we achieve a lower energy state of normal in packaging goods?

    I live dangerously- I make yogurt in old jam jars!
    …Though you only need to go to 180° and don’t need pressurization for it.

    But I absolutely echo you with that, the fact that you can’t use most glass for this is insane.

    And I only use the Baba Maman jars, they’re the only ones resilient enough.
