Plastic Packaging
I’m really glad to see that the Local Government Association is looking into plastic packaging in supermarkets. Still too much, they say. Well, I think anyone looking at this site will agree wholeheartedly with that. Worst offender was LiDL for the amount of packaging but, surprisingly for their environmental statements, Marks&Spencer were worst for using recycle-able packaging. However, the report did not say if this was because they are using materials that are already recycled.
There’s a lot to learn about plastic packaging and the whole carrier bag issue. It’s one to be investigated further. Watch this space!
