Reuse for sure, but how?
Across Germany and Europe, the will to address our waste problem is growing at municipal and state level. The sight is terrible, but disposal is also tragic. For takeaway packaging, there is nothing to recycle: mixed materials, small-scale, high contamination.
Various reuse islands present themselves. Cities host round tables and get an overview of the options. The legal framework is already being established...
Mandatory reuse offers, packaging tax, and then?
Legislation is increasingly setting the necessary incentives at municipal level for less single-use waste. Everyone benefits from a future-proof, fair and genuine circular economy in clean cities.
If there is a system that can deliver on the promise infrastructurally.
Cities need a system, not another packaging
Municipal spending on public waste disposal is partly enormous. Berlin alone employs nearly 2,000 staff and a fleet of vehicles to collect and incinerate waste from nearly 27,000 public bins and public parks.
A system that increasingly deploys this personnel to also collect reusable packaging from public spaces for reuse — that would be something. Does it exist? Looking at Berlin, where Recup and EINFACH Mehrweg already share the infrastructure of the EINFACH MEHRWEG ecosystem, it becomes imaginable!
Yes, the foundations have been laid:
