I would class myself as an avid recycler, often to the pains of my family who now ignore my lectures about what can and can’t be recycled. Now, I’m just depressed at the difficulties of recycling, with most of it likely ending up in landfill. I find it ridiculous that a plastic milk or drink container would be made of one plastic while the lid and seal from another and the label from a third plastic, and the three can’t be recycled together! As the article points out, packaging needs redesigning to suit recycling, and a big part of that should be reusability (like we used to do for glass bottles, yes I’m that old!). It’s time the government puts policies in place to require packaging to adapt to recycling.”Mark Stevens, St Agnes, SA
