Sarkar ka naya plan: Circular economy ko boost!
Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change ne bola hai ki ab se companies ko apne packaging mein ek specific amount mein recycled plastic use karna padega. Iska main motive hai plastic pollution kam karna aur recycle kiye hue materials ka use badhana.
Kya hai naye targets?
Rules ke hisaab se, alag-alag categories ke liye alag-alag targets set kiye gaye hain:
- Category I packaging (jaise rigid containers) mein FY25-26 se 30% recycled content use karna hoga, jo FY28-29 tak 60% tak jaa sakta hai.
- Category II packaging (flexible films) ke liye FY25-26 mein 10% minimum hai, jo FY28-29 tak 20% ho jayega.
- Category III packaging (baaki types) mein FY25-26 mein 5% se shuruat hogi aur FY28-29 tak 10% ho jayega.
Ye kyun important hai?
Ye ek bada shift hai packaging industry ke liye. Companies ko ab apne raw material sourcing aur production mein changes karne padenge. Isse plastic ka pura lifecycle manage hoga aur waste kam hoga.
Aage kya hoga?
Companies ko ab in targets ko meet karna hoga. CPCB (Central Pollution Control Board) ek online portal bhi banayega jahan companies apni annual reports submit kar payengi. Isse transparency bhi badhegi. Sourcing mein thodi dikkat aa sakti hai aur production cost bhi thoda badh sakta hai, par ye sab sustainability ke liye zaroori hai.
