The truth about PET (#1 plastic) might surprise you: it's the most commonly used material for beverage containers & the most #recycled plastic in the world. Research shows PET has significant #environmental advantages over aluminum cans and glass bottles: PET creates less solid waste, requires far less energy to produce, has lower global warming potential, and creates fewer harmful emissions. What's more, PET is endlessly #recyclable. As part of the circular economy, the PET bottle you #recycle today can be turned into a new bottle back in your hand in just 6 weeks.?If you really want to pick the best packaging for the environment, #PickPET.

The problem isn’t plastic, it’s waste. A world without plastic isn’t the answer, but a world without waste is. When we value materials, we stop treating them as disposable. When we redesign systems, we stop pollution before it starts. At Plastic Bank, we’re proving that waste isn’t waste when it changes lives and protects our planet. Are we ready to shift from a throwaway mindset to a circular future? Join us in the link in comment. #PlasticBank #StopPlasticPollution #EndPoverty

Mindful Monday Yes, #recycling CAN be confusing, depending on where you live. But as Wayne Gretzky (and Michael Scott) said, "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take". Start small and build the behavior into your daily lives. An easy way to do this is with your #plasticcontainers. #PET clear plastic bottles, like those used for beverages and many food products, are collected & recycled at 100% of the material recovery facilities in the U.S. and Canada! So go out there and take your shot! It's a guaranteed win!
We get it! Only 9% of plastic gets recycled globally, so it's easy to be skeptical. But let's focus on solutions and celebrate progress! We can't wait for perfection to start taking action. We absolutely need to remove plastic waste from the environment, and we need to dramatically increase the amount of plastic that's actually recycled and reused by industries. Let's support those who are making a real effort, while continuing to push for even bigger impact. Every bit counts! #PlasticRecycling #PlasticBank #StopPlasticPollution

Mindful Monday Are you looking for sustainable packaging but not sure where to start? It all starts with design. To truly be sustainable, we must design circularity into the product itself. From materials to shape and beyond, designing for recycling or reuse starts at inception.
Circular design is a hot topic, but moving beyond the buzzwords to practical implementation can be a real challenge. In this episode of the Circular Economy Show podcast, we go deeper with Joe Iles, Head of Design Activation at the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, to unpack the essential principles and skills every designer should have in their toolkit.
