Coca-Cola has partnered with local pizzerias in the United States for Toss In, Take Out, a sustainability-focused campaign promoting 100% recycled plastic bottles.
The Toss In, Take Out event will visit pizza spots in New York City, Atlanta, and Chicago, where customers can exchange any empty plastic beverage bottle, including non-Coke products, for a hearty slice of pizza and a 20-oz Coke in a recycled plastic bottle. This initiative aligns with Coca-Cola's sustainability goals, reducing virgin plastic and promoting a circular economy. With the expanded availability of recycled plastic bottles, the Coca-Cola brand anticipates saving over 37 million pounds of new plastic annually by 2024, contributing to their World Without Waste goal of using at least 50% recycled material in bottles and cans by 2030 globally.
