Plastic packaging is an efficient use of resources. In a recent report by natural capital valuation firm TruCost, it was found that if plastic packaging were replaced with alternative materials, it would could come at a net environmental cost by a function of four. In other words, it would take four times the amount of alternative material to perform the same function as plastic packaging. Check out Dordan's summary of TruCost's analysis in this Packaging Digest article, "Plastic Packaging Scores an Environmental Win."
