It's about time! Our country dump staff have been telling us for years that producers should be responsible for all of the waste in packaging, and we heartily agree.
Our landfills are a sorry sight. We bring our own minimal amount of waste and recycling to the dump ourselves here in the country so we can see the problem. We have been horrified to see first-hand that dump staff have been ordered to bulldoze mountains of plastic waste into the earth because there is no longer any capacity for it at recycling centres.
The toxic chemicals used in recycling plastics don't bear imagining.
We need to return to glass and deposits on bottles and jars. We need to encourage free re-use centres and repair cafés and educate people on buying and demanding clothing, appliances, furniture, etc. that last.
I fervently hope that this proposal meets with success.
