Title: Deposit Return Scheme manifesto
Language: English
Topic: Deposit Return System and Waste Management
Summary: Europe aims for a Circular Zero Waste Economy focused on reusing materials and minimizing waste. Deposit Return Systems (DRS), where consumers pay a deposit for products and get it back when returning the packaging, are a proven, sustainable solution. Already successful in over 40 regions for beverage containers, DRS should be expanded to other sectors like transport and packaging to further prioritize reuse and recycling.
