I remember when any reusable water bottle was the 'Eco-friendly' option.
I am massively pro-environment, but where does the purity end? I fear a constant push for eco-perfection puts swathes of people off doing anything altogether.

Latest Sport England physical activty data.
Fantastic that the number of active adults has increased by 1.6%, but IMO the number we should really be focussing on is inactivity, which has remained fairly constant at 1 in 4 adults for nearly 10 years.
