Glass at least degrades over time. I do not worry in paper as it is a
renewable resource so a paper carton of milk or whatever, works fine.
Cans work fine for me too.

If I had the space for it, I'd try composting but seriously, I do not
have the right space to make a real go of it.

I just try to avoid plastic itself when once empty, I have no use for
it.
