Thanks for telling us why it's bad for the environment
they add preservatives because there is water
the shipping costs are higher
it's just all-around modern wasteful
Uses plastic bottles when bar soap does not.
Btw plastic bottles are also bad for you. BPA was the worst endocrine suppressor of them all but, make no mistake, all plastics are endocrine suppressors. BPA just wound up being the scapegoat. Microplastics in our blood aside, whatever you put into plastic will end up being a vehicle for toxins. While eating/drinking from plastic is really bad, one doesn't usually appreciate the surface area of our skin.
Plastic is only safe for surfaces that we rarely interact with.
