Hey there little buddy, great question. The simple answer is that they wouldn’t make as much money if they they did that. By charging you for a new bottle every time they profit from the beverage but also they sell you the bottle at a higher price than it cost them to make. Should they give up some profits to limit their waste? Well yeah, they probably should. But the funny thing about corporations is that they are bound by fiduciary law (basically they HAVE to) profit as much as possible for their shareholders. If they make choices that limit profits it has to be approved by a majority vote from the people who own the company. In the case of a corporation that’s usually millions of people. It’s very hard to convince millions of people to give up even a small amount of money.
