Let’s stop the problem at the source-that is the objective of the ambitious anti-waste law in France. Blanche Laskar from the Waste Prevention Department of the City of Paris presented the key objectives of this law and how it is being implemented in Paris. For example, by 2040, all single-use plastic packaging will be banned; by 2030, there will be 50% less single-use plastic bottles; oxodegradable plastic bags will be prohibited; restaurants must accept customers with reusable containers; access to tap water will be ensured; and there will be an obligation to use reusable packaging. The law will also combat planned obsolescence. This law is a remarkable example of what all countries should aim for. If not, the industry will continue flooding society with more and more disposable packaging and items, and waste management will never be able to stop the pollution and squandering of resources this creates.
