If you thought ocean-plastic closures came straight from the abyss – think again! These sustainability darlings are actually much closer to the shoreline than the deep sea, collected from “at-risk” zones, not the ocean itself. Flaunting their “recycled” label like stars on a green carpet, many still pack a hefty dose of virgin plastic – because recycled alone rarely holds up. It’s a neat little accounting trick, where what’s actually inside remains a mystery. Maybe fewer closures is the real green answer to this plastic comedy!
