The UK Gov (in the guise of Gove) is promising to introduce a bottle tax that will be re-funded when you return the empty bottles and cans. Other countries have it. They are worried about plastic waste in the ocean, but it would clean up our streets a bit. As kids we picked up littered bottles & took back the "empties" - making a bit of pocket money.
Would this be an easy (and lucrative) way to dispose?

Remember deposits on bottles? There is nothing new on this earth! It just gets re-package like (eg) home grocery deliveries and trams (street cars)!
