Biodegradable Products Institute (BPI)

North America's leading authority on compostable products and packaging.

[Biodegradable Products Institute (BPI) @BPI_Policy]

California has set bold goals to cut waste & address climate change — but compostable products can’t help reduce the impact of food waste if #AB1201 undermines their acceptance. #CALeg must act now to #fixAB1201 and align policy with CA’s climate goals.

FACT: Certified compostable products fully break down in composting environments & compostable plastics won't leave persistent microplastics behind as they transform to compost.

#CALeg, it's time to #FixAB1201 to keep compostable products in CA. More: https://t.co/ppFxmRDljW

[Biodegradable Products Institute (BPI) @BPI_Policy]

CA’s climate leadership is on the line. State law will soon tie compostable packaging to an outdated federal standard that puts innovation at risk and increases confusion & contamination. #CALeg, we need a legislative fix to AB 1201 now. #FixAB1201

[Biodegradable Products Institute (BPI) @BPI_Policy]

Composting works best when policy reflects real-world systems & science. But CA faces unintended harm if we don't #fixAB1201 to remove a misaligned federal agriculture standard with serious implications for compostables. #CALeg

Thanks to @wastedive and @eacrunden for this great coverage of BPI's new labeling and identification guidelines for compostable products and packaging...

[Waste Dive @WasteDive]

Pandemic-induced constraints have led to an uptick in takeout and delivery, and proponents of compostables hope the guidelines could prove useful given the timing of their release. Story by @eacrunden https://t.co/Sw5ZJ9lYc2

Thanks @BioCycleMag for covering our new labeling guidelines! “The Guidelines lay out all the options and will get the conversations started.” https://t.co/X2X60AG5Um

[Biodegradable Products Institute (BPI) @BPI_Policy]

Today we're happy to introduce what we hope to be a big next step in the effort to curb contamination from non-compostable packaging in organics streams. Learn more about BPI's new guidelines for labeling and identification here:https://t.co/An8mCHG1LU
