Germany has a bottle return scheme. It's common for your (glass) bottle of beer or sparkling water to have significant wear marks where it's been rubbing against neighbours in a crate.
- lillecarl 5y agoWe used to have it as well, I remember from when I was a kid. It says on Wikipedia that we replaced the glass bottles with PET mostly. So I guess we have the same scheme, but not on the same scale anymore (one bottle supposedly gets reused 40 times on average). Though the rare ones I get I just throw in the glass recycling that'll be crushed, made into new bottles and insulation material.
