06 Jan 2023 --- Beyond Plastics is launching a resource center to aid US policymakers and advocates in designing and enforcing effective governmental action against plastic waste. The center will seek to drive unified legislation on extended producer responsibility, deposit return schemes and single-use plastic bans throughout the US. Judith Enck, president of Beyond Plastics, tells PackagingInsights that the policy changes will primarily target issues related to social justice, such as inequalities inflicted on ethnic minority communities by plastic production and pollution.
