The incentives aren't strong enough then.
In Germany it's 25 cents for plastic and aluminum. 8cents for glass.
A lot of people just throw the glass away in public bins, because a) glass is heavy and b) 8 cents is too little incentive.
The 25 cent cans most people return. If it was 1€ a glass bottle you bet your ass people would return them.
