For the first time, Coca‑Cola has revealed it used three million tonnes of plastic packaging in one year.

It's hard to visualise what three million tonnes looks like. But everyone can picture a blue whale. Now picture 15,000 of them. That's roughly three million tonnes.

But some companies including Pepsi haven't said how much plastic they use.
