This is the first thing I thought of when the previous article was posted. Without any statistics it's impossible to say anything in confidence, but it seems to me that the shipping costs in glass will never equal up to the plastics and cardboard trees that the boxes take. How many plastic things does the average person come in contact with in a day? I don't think that yet another disposable package is such a great idea. That's before you consider how many re-uses glass bottles have even before they're recycled and used again. That wine box is re-useless even before it doesn't recycle well.
