Study proposes ban on no return bottles in Long Beach
Long Beach could save over 26 million dollars yearly by outlawing soft drinks in no deposit no return bottles, with city trash costs dropping and consumer savings rising. A Cal State Long Beach environmental health team prepared the report, urging city council action but lacking hearing time. The study cites national averages and local data, noting throwaway bottles raise costs and trash volume, while bottlers would stop producing them if demand vanished.
