Do it and shut up.  It’s about look at us..we are so wonderful.

Just how many bottles do they use to make this product?  And I hate the carbon credit, holier than thou politics/marketing.

@jond

So you think this is doing something for the environment. I guess they have already grounded their corporate jets and making products out of minute volumes of plastic was all they could do.

I don’t question your sincerity, I question Sony’s.

@soix

Why must you know?

Many products are recycled.

Every time you buy a car, you buy recycled.

A manufacturer can and some do use recycle symbols on products.

Nothing wrong with them doing this. I have issues with corporations and in some cases individuals promoting their degree of righteousness. Regarding climate, this has taken on the appearance of a secular religion and the mass suppression of those of differing views follows. Labeling someone a climate denier is the modern version of calling someone a heathen and violence then follows. Nobody wants plastic in water and food, nor contaminated air, nor lithium contaminated soil, but please act properly and stop grandstanding. I’m not directing this request of those posting here.  I’ll stipulate that Sony is environmentally righteous. Sorry, I just escaped from the intolerant state of California and have issues with using these topics for self promotion.

We disagree, but I appreciate the discussion and suspect that I’m the odd duck out.  Enjoy your weekend as well as everyone here.  Back to the music.
