Reviews and feedback of packaging and non-sustainable materials is significant.
Businesses are extremely unlikely to change out of their own good will, unless there is some sort of review and something more sustainable ends up being cheaper. They'll only change due to consumer pressure.

Plastic may not be recycled now (well, certainly not to our expectations). But it will be, eventually. And hopefully the demand for recycled plastics will improve the whole cycle, where companies use recycled materials.
