Last week marked #GlobalRecyclingDay, a moment to recognise the opportunities ahead for a circular, more sustainable future 🌍

Since 2019, we have been working to perfect the circularity of paper-based packaging, aiming to raise its recycling rate in Europe to 90% by 2030. ♻️

Rolling green hills, blue sky, tree in the middle with the green leaves shaped like a recycle icon.

Happy Global Recycling Day!

Theme for 2026: #RecyclingHeroes. I'm honoring those who drive our municipal recycling trucks, out there rain or shine. They make our lives easier while ensuring our recycled items get to the right place.

What Recycling Hero would you honor today?

Reduce Refuse Recycle

Plastic ingestion. Bird died and left this.

#GlobalRecyclingDay Reduce. Refuse. Recycle.
For them. #Birds
On Midway Atoll, plastic is deadly; debris mistaken for food fills stomachs, but offers no nutrition, often resulting in death. This debris was found inside a single Moli (Laysan albatross) chick. For research link see comments.

A recycling symbol made of green leaves wraps around an Earth globe against a pale green background. "Global Recycling Day" is in all caps.

#GlobalRecyclingDay is when we come together to put our planet first. Recycling is a global issue. Let’s protect Earth's natural resources. Commit to reusing more & wasting less. It’s good for our water, our air, our animals & ourselves. #Sustainability #ReduceReuseRecycle

Graphic titled “MYTH OR FACT?” with a PET bottle labeled #1 and an arrow pointing to the symbol. Text contrasts a myth—“Plastic bottles can’t be recycled”—with a fact stating PET bottles (#1) are fully recyclable and can be made with up to 100% recycled content, emphasizing that PET is “made to be remade.” Includes a link to PositivelyPET.org/myths-and-facts and #GlobalRecyclingDay.

♻️Let's 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐚 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐦𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐬 this #GlobalRecyclingDay: ✅ PET plastic (#1 in the △) is fully recyclable. ✅A PET bottle emits fewer GHG than aluminum. ✅When you #recycle a PET bottle, it can be turned into new products. The fact is, 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐲𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐞. positivelypet.org/myths-and-fa...

They regularly recycled glass, often in dedicated recycling workshops, and chemical analysis reveals where it was originally produced, highlighting extensive movement and trade across the Empire.
