Beer brewer makes edible six-pack rings using leftovers

摘要

A Florida beer maker is using six-pack rings made from leftover barley and wheat, reducing the risk that the litter will harm marine species. Saltwater Brewery President Chris Gove said the product "came about through a love for the ocean and truly caring for the environment." The company said the rings cost a few cents more than plastic ones, but they could become cheaper if more companies start using the material.
