"  Recently Pepsi announced that it has &amp;quot;cracked the code&amp;quot; for producing soda bottles made from 100% plant materials, helping it to reduce its overall carbon footprint. Pepsi says the bottle is made from switch grass, pine bark, corn husks, and other natural materials and that it hopes to eventually start using orange peels, oat hulls, potato scraps and other leftovers from its food business in the manufacturing process. It also says that the new environmentally friendly bottle looks and feel like the bottles that are currently in use and that consumers won&amp;#039;t be able to tell the difference. We applaud Pepsi for taking this step towards using more sustainable materials and working at reducing its carbon footprint.
