It is important that companies have a vision for positive change in the community and the environment in order to reduce the production and profit from plastic products. This includes encouraging customers to purchase sustainable products and to begin altering habits which have been formed out of convenience; such as single-use plastic packaging.
Did you know that Australia produces over 64 million tones of waste every year, over 1.5 tones per person on average? Only one-third of our plastic packaging is currently recycled meaning only 600,000 out of 900,000 tonnes is recovered for recycling and what’s even more concerning is that fact that ET, HDPE and PVC plastic has an even lower recycling rate at below 30%.
Plastic bags and their negative impact on the environment have come into the spotlight in Australia and it is a good step forward that we as consumers are aiming to avoid using plastic shopping bags. Statistics show that if we join the plastic bags used annually it would go around the world 4,200 times! It takes anywhere between 20 and 1000 years for a plastic bag to breakdown into smaller pieces and this along with all other forms of plastic that are in the ocean sadly destroy marine life. Looking forward we need to eliminate our use of plastic packaging and single-use plastic so what alternatives do we as consumers and business owners have?
