Put a duty on manufacturers to state if their packaging can be recycled or not.
Not all packaging states whether you can recycle it or not.
We are becoming more concerned about the waste we as consumers are gaining by purchasing goods, and so should be supported by manufactures in our attempt recycle the packaging they choose to use.
Not only do we wish not to gain materials that cannot be recycled, but we are being made aware everyday of the detrimental impact on our planet these materials have and must take action.
We as consumers can choose whether the outcome of the waste is worth the product.
This may help manufacturers to make further efforts to improve the packaging they use where they may use sustainable and recycling packaging.
