Metal

• Limited Resources: Metal is derived from non-renewable resources, contributing to depleting natural resources.
• Recyclable: Metal packaging is recyclable, which helps reduce waste in landfills.
• Greenhouse Gas Emissions: The extraction and processing of metal generate greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to climate change.

Plastic

• Non-biodegradable: Plastic packaging takes hundreds of years to decompose, leading to long-term pollution.
• Wildlife Impact: Improper disposal of plastic can harm wildlife, as animals may ingest or become entangled in plastic debris.
• Resource Intensive: Production of plastic involves significant energy consumption and relies on limited fossil fuels. Recycling efforts have limited success, often leading to land pollution.
