In 2020, just 74% of paper and cardboard were recycled in the UK, compared to the European average of 82%. DS Smith predicts that this figure could plummet to 56% by 2030.<\/p>\n<p>According to the study this decline in sustainable and recyclable packaging could result in a loss of 17.3 million tonnes of materials, valued at \u00a32.8 billion. The UK\u2019s recycling rates have been on a downward trajectory for the past five years, coinciding with the growth of online shopping, DS Smith outlined. It estimated that the increasing consumer demand for online shopping will lead to an annual generation of 6.5 million tonnes of paper and cardboard packaging waste by the end of this decade.<\/p>\n<p>These revelations mean that the UK is on track to miss its long-term recycling targets by up to 13 years. The country has already failed to meet the 2020 recycling rate target of 50% set by the Department for Environment, Food &amp; Rural Affairs (DEFRA) and is likely to fall short of the 2025 (55%) and 2030 (65%) targets.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.letsrecycle.com\/news\/uk-recycling-rate-worst-europe\/\">Let&#8217;s Recycle<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/1-431\/\">DS Smith warns of 18% drop in paper recycling rate by 2030<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,692,579],"class_list":["post-118670","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-paper-recycling","tag-uk"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118670","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=118670"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118670\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=118670"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=118670"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=118670"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
