OUR VISION

A recent report from WWF International warns that the amount of plastic waste in the world's oceans will reach 300 million tons by 2030. According to the researchers, plastic pollution will likely double over the next decade, and nearly a third of all plastic produced will make its way into the environment.

Only around 20% of plastic is recycled globally, while 39% ends up in the landfill and 15% is incinerated and carbon dioxide emissions from burned plastic will triple by 2030. Almost half of the plastic pollution on the planet today was produced after the year 2000, most of which was used for packaging.

In October 2018, in response to this, the UK Government has announced plans to ban single-use plastics by 2021.

At the same time, the Office for National Statistics has recently announced UK takeaways, an industry reliant on single-use plastics, have increased by 34% between 2010 and 2018 with British consumers.
