Is moving away from plastic always the right move, even if it leads to more food waste?

Welcome to The State of Sustainable Packaging for August 2023! 

In today’s show, we will cover:

  1. (Hopefully) Thought Provoking Question Of The Day
  2. Sustainability Score for August 2023: Overall, are brands “checking the box” or are they fully committed? 
  3. Headlines and Education
  4. My Take On Question Of The Day

Our goal is to help you better understand the world of sustainable packaging, so you can make the best possible decisions for your brand.

Today’s question of the day is quite complicated and to answer it properly would be a case-by-case decision after investigating the specifics of the situation. The point to illustrate is that we should look deeper than being 100% anti-plastic in every scenario, as scenarios probably exist where there may not be a better option when all factors are considered.
