A German commentator recalls how companies switched from reusable to disposable materials last century to cut costs, and now suggests AI could help build a solid case for why reusable packaging is more sustainable and economically sensible. The remark has sparked discussion about whether the shift back to Mehrweg (reusables) is finally getting the well-founded justification it lacked decades ago, combining sustainability arguments with modern technology.
Why now: Sustainability and the role of AI in justifying reusable packaging are current talking points.
