They say colored bottles aren't as recyclable.

At first I agreed. But at the end of the day, you're here to drink the Sprite, not collect the bottle.

Idk how true it is but I saw a video that said theyre not making any difference in their recyclability, just the fact that sprite bottles being bright green stand out like sore thumbs in landfills. Its a completely superficial fix.

Sprite Zero is already in a clear bottle so this isn't impressive.

No, it's clear now. Which is terrible because it looks like the one with no sugar in it

He's not wrong. My gf wanted a Sprite the other day and when I went to grab it I did a double take at the clear bottle. It looks weird and the green bottle is better. I don't care what recycles better Green Sprite forever.

Okay yeah, that does look less tantalizing. Why would they change Sprite?

I don't know about years, but it's been at least 1 year here. I'm sure it's been longer

Maybe its because advertising doesnt really work on me, but I couldnt care less about a products label.

As long as the food or drink is good, doesnt matter what kind of packaging it has.

I've been living in Korea for about 10 years and the Sprite here are all clear. I assume the coloring does come into play for recycling because they are very strict about what plastic goes where.

I assume those companies just made everything clear to make things easier.

Again, my issue is that I've bought the No Sugar one by mistake a few times now because they look the same on the shelf.

Does it really matter? It's going in the recycling bin anyway.

What is the color significance of glass bottles?
Glass bottles originate from sand, and would be clear by default. During the manufacturing process, the addition of metals like cobalt or iron will change the color, but this isnt just for aesthetic appeal. Darker glass reflects more sunlight, which is why youll see beers and wines in brown and green bottles to protect them from sun damage over time. In the recycling process, bottles must be separated by color because you cant recycle clear bottles and brown bottles together.

This is for glass, not sure about plastic

Okay, but they still go in the recycling, and I don't recall having to sort plastic bottles by whether they're clear or neon at the recycling center.
