BREAKING! Victory is achieved - The Deposit Dixies are off the table!
In March 2022,
In September 2020, I completed a SUP-tour through the Netherlands in an effort to promote waste separation in schools.
My route took me from Den Ham to The Hague, where on September 10th, 2020 I presented the Bright Binners Values to the Dutch House of Representatives.
On July 3, the SUP Directive goes into effect. By 2023, companies will become responsible for collecting and cleaning up their packaging. Our Cup Count Campaign already focuses on one such product: disposable plastic (containing) cups. We want to provide input on the implementation of the SUP Directive with huge amounts of photos of littered disposable cups. Will you help us?
In the meantime, we continue the #MissionMars Campaign. Help us show the Mars Company the impact of their brands on the environment!
Download the Plastic Avengers App and take photos of littered plastic Mars wrappers: Mars, Snickers, Bounty, M&M's, Milky Way and so on. We take them to Mars and hold the company accountable.
