About the letter:
This letter opposes proposed amendments to the Blue Box regulation, arguing they will increase waste generation and pollution. The letter addresses specific changes including delayed recovery targets, reduced flexible packaging targets, allowing “energy-recovery” to count as diversion, and removing collection requirements for away-from-home beverage containers, public spaces, and multi-residential buildings. The letter urges the government to withdraw these amendments and work with a broader range of stakeholders to develop regulations that prioritize waste reduction and hold producers accountable for their packaging waste.
