You can still buy a Coke, Pepsi or other soda at LAX in a plastic bottle. You just can’t buy water in a plastic bottle. Of course the whole thing is about virtue shaming, having nothing to do with the environment.
“Los Angeles International Airport announced Saturday it will no longer allow the sale of single-use plastic water bottles effective immediately.
LAX said it has added 60 new hydration stations for people to refill their own reusable water bottles.”
And you thought city hall and Sacramento were silly—LAX has decided to one up them on joke policies.
