What is it with this very common element that has us all so mesmerized ? I’ve got a double dose of it because I collect Quartz specimens of different varieties from rare localities in the Southeastern United States as well. I really enjoy my rocks and bottles !

People are already collecting milk cartons. That's pretty much the same thing. The paper bottle idea is interesting although I'm not so sure how much of an improvement it'll be in terms of plastic waste.

I'd much rather see them returning to reusable glass bottles like the ones we collect.

A little further research shows the people responsible for the said prohibition of the aforementioned plant also had financial ties to the plastics and chemical corporations of the day , who’s products were threatened by this sustainable and renewable resource. Yes it was all about $$$$$$ , sad but true.
