Unsustainable Packaging

Proceeding contribution from Anne Main (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 June 2019. It occurred during e-petition debate on Unsustainable Packaging.

On the recycling of bottles, I took the APPG to the Veolia recycling plant in Dagenham. A problem that we have is that a lot of plastic cannot be used more than once. That plant had empty machines because it needs to feed those machines. It is a dilemma: the more we take plastic out of the system, the more recycling becomes too expensive to do. That is something we have to think about.
