Don't forget Glass.
Think about all the plastic waste that wouldn't exist if we had glass bottles instead of plastic.
But then again that would hurt the bottom line even though it's better in the long run.
Recycling glass is easy but energy intensive. Without cheap energy, it's a no go.
If only we had a cheap near limitless source of energy, like say nuclear. Too bad that's too scary.
