🚨 New Report Alert 🚨
#Aarhus + #Berlin prove that #reuse packaging isn’t just eco-friendly: it can also be economically smart for businesses + society w/ the support of public authorities to make them the standard, not the exception.
Time for change 👉 https://t.co/p7nw6ssYEw
From prioritising respect for planetary boundaries to ensuring no one is left behind by our policies and actions, there are a lot of EU-level decisions that have a great impact on our everyday lives. It's important to vote 🗳️
#EP2024#PledgeforazerowasteEurope
It’s about time to stop #packaging nonsense! ✋
@Frederiqueries @EU2024BE @EU_Commission stay strong on the last miles of the #PPWR! We cannot accept this anymore. We need reuse targets & bans on unnecessary packaging!
We’re counting on you! 💪🏽

🚨 Europe’s packaging waste is out of control 🚨
@EU2024BE @Frederiqueries@EU_Commission, citizens expect you to deliver credible solutions - waste prevention and reuse - to the packaging waste crisis!
Check out the joint letter we signed now! 👇
Paper cup = sustainable packaging? WRONG!❌
A new report by @MMmeRecyclage reveals that paper-based food packaging contains plastic, is not compostable, nor 100% recyclable.
📢 Single-use paper is not the solution! #PPWR

In 2020, the EU produced 73kg of paper-based #packaging waste, per person. That's 10kg more waste than 8 years ago - and the problem is getting worse. EU packaging rules are changing - let's get serious about #reuse@EP_Environment@Frederiqueries
📢The Rethink Plastic alliance & 79 organisations are calling on @EP_Environment to ensure well-designed #reuse systems in the #PPWR to reduce packaging waste!

👏In her intervention, @LarissaCopello from @zerowasteeurope welcomed the introduction of waste reduction & #reuse ♻️ measures but held that the November circular economy package falls short of its objective 🎯 to achieve 100% of reuse or #recycling of #packaging by 2030.

[WATCH📹] 42% of #plastic waste in the world is packaging! The @EU_Commission is proposing a new regulation to fight against this pollution, with reduction & reuse objectives that we call for to be more ambitious, particularly in the catering sector🧃@iciBarbes@RethinkPlastic 👇
The EC's #PPWR proposal already gives a positive signal to the EU market by listing key waste prevention and reuse measures. But for investments on large-scale implementation of reuse packaging systems we need more ambition. @Europarl_EN and @EUCouncil: we're counting on you! 2/5
The @EU_Commission’s proposes reuse targets in the new EU packaging and packaging waste regulation (#PPWR) - s. This is an important step, but #RethinkPlastic recommends far more ambition on these reuse targets: https://t.co/oirZm11bvP
Europe must move towards a circular #zerowaste economy that retains value by reusing materials over and over; and uses recycling as a last resort.
Separate recycling collection targets should be complementary to strong and binding reuse targets.

After tackling #SingleUse plastics, we will now aim to promote #ReUse as much as possible. The upcoming revision of EU packaging rules will propose reuse as a key element. Thank you @zerowasteeurope for sharing your #WeChooseReuse petition today!
