Article Abstract:
In France, the National Packaging Council has launched the first packaging waste prevention catalogue. This document indicates 98 ways to reduce waste at the source. Simplifying the packaging system and reducing the size of packaging among the principal paths to improvement, and they have a considerable economic impact. They would save 28,000 tonnes of packaging per year, and would mean reducing transport by 110,000 pallets, and would reduce 12% of waste at the source. The National Packaging Council was created in 1997, and includes the various actors involved in packaging waste - materials and packaging manufacturers, approved companies, elected local officials, consumer representatives, and environmental protection organisations. The Council is set up in order promote collaboration among all of these groups. The calculation of contributions to approved companies, such as Eco-Emballages and Adelphe may be modified. An arrangement which provides greater encouragement may be set up in order to promote reduction of waste at the source.
