A 2020 vision
We’re backing the Friends of the Earth campaign to halve ‘black bag’ household waste by 2020
Coca‑Cola Enterprises Great Britain has signed the Friends of the Earth campaign calling on the Government to set a goal to halve the nation’s black bin bag waste by 2020 - through increased recycling, waste prevention and re-use.
As well as Coca‑Cola’s support, the campaign has the backing of other businesses, councils and organisations, including Sainsbury’s, B&Q and WWF.
What is Coca‑Cola doing to reduce waste, packaging and encourage recycling?
- Our packaging mantra is ‘reduce, reuse and recycle’. We’ve developed lighter cans and bottles to reduce our use of glass, plastic and aluminium
- We've set up Recycle Zones around the country to encourage our consumers to recycle on the go
- Our innovative PlantBottle™ range is made from up to 22.5 per cent plant materials and up to 25 per cent recycled plastic
- We’re helping with the pledge to deliver a 'zero waste' Games for London 2012
