    I’ve heard a major cost of glass is the comparative weight causing more cost for fuel in transport. Perhaps as electric vehicles become more practical for hauling goods, we could see a return to more glass use in the near future as the difference in fuel cost could be negligible then.

      It’s darn near negligible now, but any company that leaves that $.01 on the table will eventually get eaten alive by a company that didn’t.
