Компании Coca-Cola, PepsiCo и Nestlé стали мировыми лидерами по пластиковому загрязнению, согласно новому отчёту Break Free From Plastic от почти 2 тыс. Мусор из упаковок от продуктов компании волонтёры Break Free From Plastic нашли в 51 из 55 стран. В 2019 году первая тройка выглядела почти так же: Coca-Cola, Nestlé и PepsiCo. Согласно Break Free From Plastic, транснациональные корпорации выбрасывают столько одноразового пластика, что производство вредного пластика может удвоиться к 2030 году и утроиться к 2050 году. Coca-Cola, PepsiCo и Nestlé должны быть лидерами в поиске реальных решений», — сказала координатор глобальных корпоративных кампаний Break Free From Plastic Эмма Пристланд.

Only 18 companies disclosed all nine of the practices taken into consideration, including Goldman Sachs, Nike, Nvidia, and PepsiCo. Just's team of researchers gathered all public data on nine criteria related to what it calls "human capital." The team discovered that only 18 of the companies both disclosed and tracked the progress of all the criteria. It was initially acceptable to simply state a policy, but then stakeholders demanded increasingly extensive data and signs of progress. "I don't think that you have much of a choice these days, if you're a larger company," she said.
