The amount of news related to sustainable packaging developments is overwhelming.
In fact, the majority of content posted at PlasticsToday involves sustainability in some way. Yet there are as many features we publish as there are opportunities for more.
That’s the idea behind this regularly updated newsfeed of Tweets that center on plastics’ recycling, bioplastics, and other closely related news, issues, and innovations surrounding circularity for plastic packaging.
With all due respect Senator, this is simply inaccurate. This fee will the price of everyday goods for hard working Americans & isn’t going to #EndPlasticWaste, fix plastic #recycling or accelerate a #CircularEconomy.
