Good as long as the companies do a complete life cycle analysis.
For example, think about the "Plant Bottle" that soft drink manufacturers are using:
Is manufacturing the bottle from plants more energy intensive than from petroleum?
Are you using crop residues or are you specifically growing crops to be made into plastic?
Will this product have a lower shelf life?
Is this product sturdy enough that consumer won't use TWO of them, negating any benefits?
What happens when the product ends up in a landfill?
What happens when the product is recycled? Can it be made into more bottles or does it end up as a park bench?
