The coalition highlights the need to tackle the annual loss of 8.6 billion drinks containers through landfill, incineration, or littering. Signatories to the initiative include Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, Suntory, the British Soft Drinks Association, and prominent environmental organisations such as WWF and Surfers Against Sewage.<\/p>\n<p>Together, they call on the UK government to prioritise the scheme. \u201cEvery day, more than 20 million drinks containers are \u2018lost from the loop\u2019,\u201d said Keep Britain Tidy Chief Executive Allison Ogden-Newton OBE. \u201cThe environmental case of a DRS is clear. The foundations are laid for the policy, and our new government has a fantastic opportunity to bring this to fruition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Research from Reloop, a circular economy non-profit, reveals that over 20 million drinks containers are discarded daily, contributing to widespread environmental damage. Keep Britain Tidy\u2019s own studies show that more than 75% of litter by volume stems from drinks consumption. The proposed DRS could prevent these losses by ensuring packaging is returned for recycling instead of polluting streets, waterways, and landfills. The government estimates that a DRS would reduce littering of drinks containers by 85%, a significant step towards achieving the UK\u2019s net-zero emissions target by 2050. With public support for this target standing at 72%, a DRS offers an actionable pathway to elevate stagnant recycling rates.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.packaging-gateway.com\/news\/keep-britain-tidy-leads-call-for-recycling-reform-across-uk\/\">Packaging Gateway<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/5-640\/\">Keep Britain Tidy leads call for recycling reform across UK<\/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":[575,17124,764,579],"class_list":["post-135732","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-keep-britain-tidy","tag-recycling","tag-uk"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135732","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=135732"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135732\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135732"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135732"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135732"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
