🚨 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 🗳️

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!

⚠️ Beware of false advertising and untruthful green claims!

When it comes to paper-based food packaging, these are the facts:

Almost 5 years from this post and nothing has changed... It’s time to put an end to #unnecessary #packaging for good. @EU2024BE @Frederiqueries @EU_Commission unwrap our fruits & veggies! 🥒🍌We’re counting on you ! #PPWR

[Larissa Copello @LarissaCopello]

A world full of packaged bananas, as if they had not enough protection already..🍌🤔🤦🏾‍♀️
Hey @DelhaizeBelgium just so you know, fruits are already naturally covered by their skins. There is no need to wrap them up! #BeatPlasticPollution #breakfreefromplastic #plasticstrategy

[Rethink Plastic @RethinkPlastic]

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

[Environmental Paper Network @WhatsNYourPapr]

Let’s stop talking about whether we need systems for reusable #packaging, and start talking about how to make those systems work.

20% increase in packaging waste over last decade.
Still wonder why the EU needs reduction and reuse targets?

[Rethink Plastic @RethinkPlastic]

📢The Rethink Plastic alliance & 79 organisations are calling on @EP_Environment to ensure well-designed #reuse systems in the #PPWR to reduce packaging waste!

A huge percentage of European forests are pulped into #paper and disposable #packaging.

This NGO briefing outlines what should happen to truly reduce the negative environmental, social & climatic impacts of the paper & packaging industries:

👏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.

[Surfrider Europe @surfridereurope]

[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 👇

[Zero Waste Europe @zerowasteeurope]

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

[Rethink Plastic @RethinkPlastic]

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

[Piotr Barczak 💚🌱🌍♻️ @PBarczak]

#Packaging Regulation revision
Anything less ambitious than what was seen in the leaked version last month will be a shame, a disgrace, a disrespect.

[Zero Waste Europe @zerowasteeurope]

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!
