      I have to agree with this in principle, more money should be heading towards recycling and ending the “throwaway culture” as it’s leading to massive amounts of waste, also agree that companies should be paying more towards it, they dish out ridiculous amounts of products without an afterthought apart from the cash, but companies will simply pass on the cost to the consumers as per usual and it will only damage consumers.

      This is a game changer if it is implemented well!
      Imagine they do this for one-use plastics, making the company pay for their products disposal is a brilliant way to push business to be more environmentally friendly and actually use the many many biodegradable packaging and material alternatives we already have

    3. This will just make things yet more expensive….. the business won’t shoulder all of these costs and will pass it on. Probably not the best idea when trying to reduce inflation

      Oh boy, I can’t wait for all electrical goods to go up in price and then not be recycled anyway.

      Fully agree this to start in August, Then the next one can start in September.

      But it’s a bit of a joke, when you consider people are being enticed to throw away their car for a new one, because it’s 3 years old, or it’s not electric.

      Then there’s the clothing culture… This seasons hot picks etc… 4 times a year, get a new closet full of clothes.

      Or your football team has changed their tops for next season, buy new ones.

      Thought the point of that super impressive vape ban was to make them not have this issue?

    7. They should have been banned anyway. Why the government pushed people away from refillable vapes to the disposable is so stupid. In a world when we need batteries more and more. People are just throwing away rare earth elements because its out of juice

    8. I’d rather have cigarettes be back as the in thing rather than the battery pack smoke machines
