What IS the state of recycling today? There’s all sorts of different data claims around recycling rates lately but The Recycling Partnership is doing the groundwork with thousands of communities across the U.S. to transform underperforming recycling programs by mobilizing accurate, real-time data. Their annual SORR report, The State of Recycling Report, does just that— reports the latest data in recycling in the U.S. Their report has revealed that the introduction of Extended Producer Responsibility #EPR is proving successful in increasing residential recycling rates. This is amazing news that validates the upcoming EPR era in the U.S. as more states pass EPR packaging bills. We’ve become very familiar with EPR earlier this year while assisting The Recycling Partnership with building out one of their many on-demand courses, “Introduction to EPR.” In addition to their online course catalog, The Partnership is constantly making behavior-changing resources that solve for circularity accessible on their Recycling Programs Solutions Hub as well as their website! If you’re interested in learning more about EPR, sign up for their FREE course below in the comments for an Introduction to EPR ♻️ #RecyclingRates #ExtendedProducerResponsibility #CircularEconomy #BehaviorChange
