Praise for Stonyfield Farms’ Plastic Switch

Plastic is a problem. This has become clear in the last few years. It takes a long time to break down, it ends up in large gyres in the ocean, and it’s based on a non-renewable resource; oil. So it’s with great pleasure we share the news that our partners at Stonyfield Farm have switched from a petroleum-based plastic to a plant-based plastic for their mutlipack yogurt products. The move will cut down the greenhouse emissions for the mutlipacks in half. That’s impressive. You can learn more at Stonyfield’s website, and at Boston.com’s Green Blog.
