New Heinz Ketchup bottles

In this article, it talks about how in June 2011 Heinz will begin to switch over to more ecofriendly ketchup bottles. Heinz will now be offered in the same bioplastic bottles introduced by Coca Cola in 2009. The switch to this more eco friendly product is Heinz attempt to reduce greenhouse gas emmissions, water consumption, solid waste, and energy consumption by 20% by 2015. I think that all companies should begin to switch over to more eco friendly packaging options such as this one because in 2010 alone, the use of bioplastic packacged reduced emissions of carbon dioxide by 30,000 metric tons. (which is equivalent to about the burning of 60,000 barrels of oil)
