Polytag Limited reposted this
Pioneer of Digital DRS * Chief Exec & Co-founder of DDRS Alliance * Advancing the Circular Economy through new & emerging technologies * Deep understanding of DRS (deposit return schemes)
Lessons are being learned in Ireland - and one major revelation (not!) is that the Irish culture is not adapting as well to an RVM-based Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) as other, more compliant, cultures - like Germany, Scandinavia and much of Eastern Europe. I suspect the UK will be similar to Ireland though even more so! https://lnkd.in/e3_Xx6RT This article highlights <<again>> that a digital DRS solution would fit the Irish culture so much better than the outdated machine system developed in 1984, cost FAR less, and protect the kerbside collection system enjoyed in Ireland, the UK and many countries around the World. I know the politicians are busy, and the large drinks brands want to put to bed their 3-year planning cycle, but why are we flogging this old nag still? Insight: countries outside the UK (and Ireland) will be first to implement a digital DRS - countries that are way ahead of the UK in digital transformation - and will show the UK up again to be conservative (small 'c') and risk-averse. And I predict that the UK will claim that they cannot switch to a digital system for 7 to 10 years as they have to pay for the RVM machines they have put into the market!! #digitaldrs #DDRSAlliance #thefutureofDRS
