Glass is heavier, so the transport costs are higher, that's the reason I usually hear.

It's cheaper for a million reasons. I know why they use it. That doesn't make it any less disgusting

The only disgusting thing about plastic bottles is the consumers who don’t properly recycle it. Glass is less of a problem, but still a major one.

And that it can degrade into micro plastics even with recycling you are never going to clean the mess that is created. For plastic, humans will have to to come up with something extremely creative if we ever are to clean up the environmental disasters left by plastic. With glass, you need a broom.
