Reuse of domestic plastic bottles
Make a feasibility study for reusing plastic bottles containing domestic products such as washing up liquid, bleach, shampoo, laundry liquid etc by retailing contents as dispensed liquid from automated 'filling stations.' This may include legislation to promote new retailer and supplier practices but would result in massive reductions in plastic waste.
Why is this important?
These bottles are typically sturdy enough to be used many times and reusing a bottle ten times would reduce plastic consumption and waste by 90%. It would reduce transportation and consumer prices. The retail technology is readily available and the public are highly motivated to adopt such initiatives.
