Positive move by Pepsi, but high levels of recycled content in plastic packaging is only possible if we all play our part by recycling the bottles #recycleweek @WRAP_UK

[Pepsi UK @PepsiUK]

Have you seen our NEW Pepsi MAX 500 and 600ml bottles? They're now made from 100% recycled plastic ♻️ #NothingTastesBetter than 100% recycled #PepsiMAXRecycled

[Clear on Plastics @clearonplastics]

This week is #RecycleWeek! 🙌
Head over to @recycle_now and help the nation #recycle.

Don't forget that #recycling plastic means it can be regenerated into a new #plastic item and displaces the need for natural resources, saves energy and reduces carbon emissions. 😐 🌍

Truly saddened at the passing of the brilliant Sean Lock. His brilliance will be sorely missed. The amount of times I’ve almost wet myself laughing at him is countless.

Sleep well Sean.

I genuinely couldn’t stop laughing for days at this.

[Gary Delaney: On tour @GaryDelaney]

I found a message in a bottle on the beach. It said ‘Can you put this in the recycling?’

[Helen Bird @HelenHouseBird]

Thanks @Tesco! Dropped off my recent hoard of all types of plastic bags and wrappers for recycling today #ukplasticspact @WRAP_UK

[WRAP @WRAP_NGO]

Bags for Life: Or are they? Check out our blog by WRAP’s @HelenHouseBird. She takes a look at our new consumer research into plastic carrier bag use, the increase charge to 10p and why it is so important to take one simple action - reuse our bags. https://t.co/EgsswBYdUD

Bags for life: or are they? Today DEFRA announces the increase in carrier bag charging. Here's what I think: https://t.co/mxBOAFNZiW

@Recoup_UK @WRAP_UK Looking forward to it! In person? Here's hoping!

[Helen Bird @HelenHouseBird]

Up to 1/3 microplastics in UK waters are from tyres according to this @suezUK report. There are no simple answers, but as we emerge from lockdown I hope that we continue to keep a lid on unnecessary travel, particularly for plastic waste tackling work! https://t.co/7qkCJ9TSN7
