可口可乐首曝包装数据：一年用掉的塑料相当于15000头蓝鲸体积

你能想象15000头蓝鲸的体积吗？这就是可口可乐一年用掉的塑料总量。

可口可乐公司日前首度披露了每年在产品包装上用掉的塑料数量，与此同时，包括雀巢、巴宝莉、高露洁在内的多家企业也公开了自己用掉的塑料包装数量，并承诺将采用更环保的包装方式。

For the first time, Coca-Cola has revealed it used three million tonnes of plastic packaging in one year.

In total, 150 companies are pledging to reduce their plastic usage as part of the campaign.

But some companies including Pepsi, L\'Oreal and H&M haven\'t said how much plastic they use.
