The future of flexible plastics under Europe&#8217;s new packaging rules

The EU Packaging rules are changing the way businesses think about packaging.

Plastic Free July Swaps 1

Coffee capsules and some tea bags can be hard to recycle through your local kerrbside services, which means they often end up in landfills and incinerators.

Attribution science connects the recent heatwaves in Europe and now in North America to climate change. This kind of heat is deadly, disruptive, and unsustainable. Despite these alarming trends,

PLASTIC POLLUTION STARTS ON LAND

Plastic Free July is often about refusing plastic. But what happens to the plastic already in the world? Most people picture plastic pollution as an ocean problem.

Plastic is often seen as something with no value, so it gets discarded into rivers, canals, and waterways. N

Every piece of plastic has a story. Too often, that story ends in rivers, coastlines, and communities affected by plastic pollution. But it doesn't have to.
