GREAT PACKAGING INITIATIVES

Last weekend, I read about four separate packaging initiatives of great environmental merit.
  • Stonyfield Farm in the United States is pioneering yogurt cups made from plants, cutting carbon emissions by 48%.
  • Arla in the United Kingdom is already using 15% recycled plastic in all its milk polybottles and is aiming for 50% by 2020.
  • Coca-Cola expects to produce 5 billion bottles with 30% plant based materials in 2011 and plans to introduce Odwalla fruit juice bottles with 96% plant ingredients next March.
  • Stora Enso and Tetra Pak have developed new technology in Spain that enables recovery of the plastic and aluminium in beverage cartons.
As I keep saying, it would be even greater if local and national government recycling schemes advanced at the same pace.
