Rejected petition Enforce a law that manufactures must make all there packing recyclable locally
Currently 1/3 of food packaging cannot be recycled this is mainly due to the differnt plastics that the manufactures use. I feel this issue needs tackling as it’s a waste of people’s efforts to help with reducing landfill only to find that they were wasted as these things couldn’t be recycled.
More details
The manufactures created this problem they should pay for it.
