Would it be so hard to have cachiers scan a unique code on each product purchased that ties it to the sales receipt?
Law enforcement could use that to track the purchaser and fine them for littering. Absolutely not anything different than now when law enforcement uses receipts found at illegal campsites or illegal dumps and using that the same way.
There is way too much tracking of my information as it is. I don’t need my name tracked every time I buy a coke. Maybe it’s time to move on from plastic bottling. Be better to move on to something that is actually recyclable or at least breaks down when disposed.
Trouble is that the companies packaging is not sustainable and not environmental friendly. Pushing the recycling of this onto consumers is somewhat “unethical” in a sense.
The packing should be fully sustainable, and if not the company’s that create the product should have a system in place the receive and properly reuse the packaging or dispose of it in a environment friendly way.
Recycling programs are run by the government payed for by the people and corporations abuse these systems that we pay for with our taxes. Generally creating products that can’t be recycled.
I agree people should not litter, but sometimes items are actually disposed of properly, but when garbage crews come by or the litter is on the way to the landfill it flys of the truck and picked up by the wind. Not to mention sometimes open dumpster areas are not the best at keeping garbage and litter contained.
Isn’t that avoidable by paying cash? Either that or people can only use card to pay for products with recyclable packaging, which seems severe and kind of authoritarian.

Just got to force companies to comply.

We have cans and they can be recycled infinately.
That does sound hard, and difficult to implement. Better to make the packaging compostable.
Oh sweet, soda that’s leaking before you even buy it
Why?
Yes ending privacy as we know it, to solve litter.
