Bottle Deposit Scheme

Roll out a Bottle Deposit Return Scheme across the UK to help the plastic pollution crisis we find ourselves in.

Why is this important?

It is estimated that at least 8 million tonnes of plastic leak into the ocean every year ā€“ which is equivalent to dumping the contents of one rubbish truck into the ocean every minute. This plastic then causes harm to our wildlife, pollutes our water, washes up on our shores and even ends up in our food chain.
