Unfortunately when it comes to big corporations it's hard to tell if something like this is a real effort or just _greenwashing_ meant to improve company's image in the eyes of customers and help to silence their conscience. When it comes to single plastic usage I think that putting all the pressure on customers, individuals is simply wrong and not enough, I'm convinced that serious pressure needs to be placed on manufacturers, amount and count of used packaging materials taxed or something like this.
Recently I received box of pralines as a gift - amount of various materials used to deliver 15 pieces of chocolate is absolutely insane, ridiculous: hard translucent plastic case, tinfoil, tinfoil pressed/glued with plastic wrapping, lacquered glued paper, non-lacquered paper, plastic tray - there are tons of products like this one on stores shelves and I'm disillusioned and don't believe at all that it's getting "recycled" In addition to above I don't believe that just putting garbage in the correct bin is enough effort from customer's side, it's just not. |
