Implementation of harmonized Extended Producer Responsibility strategies to incentivize recovery of single-use plastic packaging waste in Canada

Abstract

Mil­lions of tonnes of vir­gin (pri­mary) plas­tic are pro­duced an­nu­ally, while re­cov­er­able (sec­ondary) plas­tic rapidly ac­cu­mu­lates as waste in land­fills and the en­vi­ron­ment. Sin­gle-use plas­tics (SUPs) have short lifes­pans, and most of this waste is gen­er­ated by pack­ag­ing from global food in­dus­tries. Food pack­ag­ing waste com­prises ap­prox­i­mately one-third (8 mil­lion tonnes) of all Cana­dian mu­nic­i­pal solid waste, and only 20% is re­cov­ered for reuse or re­cy­cling. Ex­tended pro­ducer re­spon­si­bil­ity (EPR) strate­gies lever­age cor­po­rate re­sources to re­duce SUP waste gen­er­ated by con­sumers. Im­ple­men­ta­tion of EPR strate­gies al­lows lo­cal ju­ris­dic­tions to gain greater con­trol over their waste streams. Al­though Canada has had a na­tional EPR strat­egy since 2009, it is cur­rently only im­ple­mented for pack­ag­ing in five provinces (e.g., British Co­lum­bia, Saskatchewan, Man­i­toba, On­tario and Québec), and is cur­rently un­der de­vel­op­ment in New Brunswick. In this short com­mu­ni­ca­tion, a case ex­am­ple of EPR im­ple­men­ta­tion in Nova Sco­tia is pro­vided which high­lights the po­ten­tial eco­nomic ben­e­fits for mu­nic­i­pal­i­ties ($14–17 M CAD in es­ti­mated sav­ings), for im­proved solid waste man­age­ment and for in­creas­ing re­cy­cling rates. Fur­ther, a re­gional EPR strat­egy is rec­om­mended for all At­lantic Cana­dian provinces (e.g., New­found­land and Labrador, New Brunswick, Prince Ed­ward Is­land and Nova Sco­tia) now that the Cana­dian fed­eral gov­ern­ment has an­nounced a move to­wards zero plas­tic waste un­der the Ocean Plas­tics Char­ter.
