Sony introduced headphones made from plastic bottles

@vonhelmholtz Um do what exactly? Marketing can indeed suck but actually doing things to help the environment is  critically important. And there's an ocean of plastic out there pun intended.

@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.

The perfect is ever the enemy of the good.

Wonder if there will be a future blurb (by an online influencer) in regard to plastic bottles being made from recycled headphones?

@carlsbad @vonhelmholtz Whatever their motivation, and I’m not exactly a Sony fan, what’s the harm of putting recycled bottles into earbuds rather than a landfill? I’ve got shoes that were also made from recycled plastic and have served me very well for years rather than adding to a landfill. What’s the problem here? Would you rather have this plastic in a landfill? Does that sound better to you? If so, why? I’d love to know why that’s a better outcome to you.
