A new soccer pitch made entirely out of recycled plastic beer cups was unveiled Thursday in Sochi, the host city of the 2014 Winter Olympics. A Belgian brewery reprocessed more than 2.5 tons of plastic at a plant in the Russian city of Tver to build the pitch. The new facility is part of the Belgian brewery's commitment to sustainability.
