We will return to returnable packaging, like when we brought shards of glass back to the supermarket or warehouses and they gave us a few cents of pesetas for each of them, but with the difference that they will be plastic bottles, cartons and cans.
The Ministry of Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge has decided to set up the compulsory deposit, return and return of containers (SDDR) system. after publishing data on the selective collection of plastic bottles which, according to the portfolio led by Sara Aagesen, remained in 2023 at 41.3% by weight compared to that introduced on the market, far from the target of 70% set by the waste law for this year.
Ministry decision
This is the conclusion reached by the report published by the Ministry of Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge (MITECO), to which Europa Press had access. Concretely, the text specifies that the total of single-use plastic bottles put on sale this year in Spain amounts to 214,039 tonnes
