    It’s a deposit system that works as a deposit system. And it’s purpose is to decrease the amount of bottles that get thrown into the streets and that does totally work. Just compare how many bottles are lying around in Germany to other countries.

      No, it’s not: it’s a fine you pay because it’s assumed you’ll litter some bottles: not all bottles have Pfand, which is nonsense: soda yes, juice not.

      And the number of bottles lying around? Germans come back from Spain praising how clean the streets are and Spain has no Pfand system. That’s just not true.

        Juice has Pfand sine 2022. You might want to check if you have throwing away a Playstation 5 all this time ;)
