It's a WRAP?

Wrap is a sustainability charity and one driver of the UK Plastics Pact. This Pact sets targets for dealing with plastic waste, to be achieved by 2025. The UK Plastics Pact aims to eliminate all problem plastic and to ensure that all plastic packaging is reuseable, recyclable or compostable (https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/apr/14/change-is-always-difficult-from-no-lids-to-vac-packs-the-war-on-plastic-packaging-divides-opinion). All major supermarkets have signed up to the UK Plastics Pact. Since 2018, more than 600m plastic items have been removed from supermarket shelves. Rigid plastic packaging is now 92% recyclable. This is progress but a small number of folk apparently don't like some of the current changes. Some people object to the removal of hard plastic lids from spillable yoghourt and dips. Others, don't like the appearance of vacuum-packed mince (even though it lasts longer and takes up less space). It would be a great pity, if the objecters are not gradually weaned off their plastic. A real priority, however, shoulde be for local councils to synchronise their plastic collections. Practises are currently too diverse and too confusing for many householders.
