    Is it not people doing that? Why single out coca cola? If they stopped existing tomorrow, it would just be another brand of soda that people were mindlessly littering.

      The company makes the plastic bottles, which don’t need to be plastic, and then uses marketing to promote consumption. The people are not to blame for being exploited by the scheme of the corporations. If this company stopped existing tomorrow, I’m sure people would consume less just from the lack of advertisement.

        If they stopped existing tomorrow another company would step in and advertise just as much. This only changes with government intervention or the better but unlikely solution of consumer attitude changes towards littering.
