Although sustainability and recycling are perceived as a social project, they should actually be adopted as a way of life so that the world does not exist and resources are not exhausted. Recycling is a philosophy that must be taken very seriously and applied seriously in all sectors and products.
Plastic is shown as the biggest problem in the world. However, if it were not plastic, my other products would be 30% more waste than it is now. In other words, the plastic ensured the total waste amount to be 30% less. Many governments and companies develop investments, projects and applications related to recycling. The recycling of plastic is valuable that cannot be left to individuals' efforts and initiative. Government and companies are required to encourage individuals to recycle. Many applications such as converting the collected plastic bottles from vending machines to cash or travel tickets, and including plastic products into the system as fuel or energy have been implemented.
A renowned beverage company allows 2 liter returnable PET bottles to spread to North Gauteng, Limpopo and Mpumalanga. The consumer response to the returnable PET bottles was very positive. It was observed that customers in Eastern Cape decided to buy returnable bottles and return them after consuming. After each bottle has reached the end of its usable life cycle, it has joined a regional production value chain, resulting in less waste in the environment.
Returnable PET bottles can be identified with a new paper label and are Returnable, distinguished by a green label on the front of the bottle. Serious investment has been made for this packaging method. Thanks to the application launched in the pilot region, the reactions of the consumers are analyzed and it is expected that the application will expand in many countries and continents in a short time. The biggest goal is to increase the recycled material in the packaging and to ensure that more packaging is collected and recycled. Of course, the application, which will add not only to the environment but also to the economy, will go on a cyclical journey to clean the packaging according to its requirements with strict measures, then it will be refilled to start the next life cycle. When the bottle reaches the end of its usable life cycle, it joins the recycling value chain and reapplies to another PET product.
Of course, it is not easy for every society to adapt to the deposit application. However, it is an application that every person who thinks about his future and his planet must follow.
