Vandoren supplies all its reeds individually wrapped for "freshness" or "humidity control". In plastic, with a further plastic reed holder inside. I wonder what the environmental impact of that quantity of plastic is over the course of a year or decade. I also wonder what the science is on having wrapped reeds- I'm very sceptical. Surely any supposed advantage of sealing is reversed once you've opened the package. I recently bought some Pilgerstorfers which are neatly encased in a recycled cardboard holder, in a recycled cardboard box. Much happier with those reeds by the way. I wonder if there's a way the single-reed-playing community could petition and pressure vandoren, an any other similar offenders, into cleaning up their act. Apologies if this topic has been addressed before here.
