What are the implications of not reducing plastic waste?

2022 saw the introduction of the Plastic Packaging Tax in the UK.

According to a recent UK study, more than 1.3 billion tonnes of plastic could enter the environment globally by 2040.The Plastic Packaging Tax is a green initiative to encourage the use of recycled rather than new plastic within plastic packaging. Every one of us has a responsibility to work harder to prevent further damage to the environment and for many businesses, this starts with the amount of plastic being used in transporting goods.
