Far More Than Waste Separation and Can Deposit
Federal Environment Minister Svenja Schulze: Sustainability Strategy for a Modern Circular Economy
Berlin, 10.10.2022 – The German government is not only focusing on waste separation and can deposit, but also on a comprehensive sustainability strategy for a modern circular economy. In the German Sustainability Strategy, which was adopted by the Federal Cabinet on 12 October 2022, the government has set out a far-reaching set of measures for a sustainable future.
“We are not only promoting waste separation and can deposit, but are also implementing a comprehensive sustainability strategy for a modern circular economy. In this way, we are creating a framework for a sustainable future,” said Federal Environment Minister Svenja Schulze.
The Sustainability Strategy provides for a number of measures in the area of circular economy, including:
- Promoting the use of recycled materials: The government wants to increase the use of recycled materials in production in order to reduce the consumption of raw materials and energy.
- Improving product design: The government wants to encourage the design of products that are durable, repairable and recyclable.
- Promoting sustainable business models: The government wants to promote sustainable business models that reduce waste and pollution.
- Investing in research and development: The government wants to invest in research and development to develop new technologies and solutions for a circular economy.
In addition, the government is also working to improve the legal framework for a circular economy. This includes, for example, the introduction of a mandatory deposit for beverage cans and bottles, as well as the expansion of the extended producer responsibility.
“A modern circular economy is an important part of a sustainable future. We are committed to implementing the measures of the Sustainability Strategy and thus making a significant contribution to climate protection and resource conservation,” said Federal Environment Minister Svenja Schulze.
