Else, fruits and food that don’t really need packaging because they have a natural bacteria barrier, or something similar
But yea I don’t see any good sanitary alternative. Since we’re bound to get microplastics I guess reusable containers that are only washed and reused a couple of times would be beneficial, at the cost of a little more microplastics.
Some kind of paper to a certain extend for some things, but yea, nothing is as good as plastic :(
Don’t use plastic where you don’t need to. And then maybe use cardboard+thin plastic for the rest: less recyclable, but less plastic 🤔
You cannot use cardboard for liquids. There are containers that have a cardboard exterior – just tear them, and you’ll find out they are made out of a sandwich material with an interior layer of plastic, meddle layer of aluminium and exterior cardboard. almist unrecyclable.
What about cardboard?
I believe it uses a lot of water and isn’t really safe for food consumption, and for preserving food
Is there nothing better for the environment than plastic at least?
Short distribution channels would be the best

If there only would be a pipeline to each house providing a stream of clean drinkable water
Yes it’s called Tap Water and refilling your own bottle
