Coca-Cola UK has calculated its impact on the environment. Working with the UK Carbon Trust, Coke says that a 330ml can of ‘Coca-Cola’ sold in Great Britain has a carbon footprint of 170 grams Co2 equivalent.
A 330ml glass bottle of ‘Coca-Cola’ has more than double - 360 grams Co2e.
After checking all aspects of the product's life cycle, Coke says that packaging accounts for the largest single impact, 30 - 70 per cent, depending on the type of container.
