Aligning bio-based plastics and EU circular economy objectives for packaging

Members of the Rethink Plastic Alliance and supporting organisations are calling on the European Commission to critically reassess the study on bio-based plastics, as part of the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, which does not provide a sufficiently balanced basis for future policy development.
EU bio-based, biodegradable & compostable plastics framework: can recommendations help control pollution?

On 30 November, the European Commission will publish its Circular Economy Action Plan. It includes a framework indicating in which cases it makes sense to use bio-based, biodegradable or compostable plastics. Spoiler alert: applications should be extremely limited. Can these recommendations be of true help against plastic pollution?
