The U.S. Plastics Pact is thrilled to announce the release of Roadmap 2.0! Building upon Roadmap to 2025, Roadmap 2.0 continues carrying forward the Targets, Outcomes, and Deliverables not yet fully achieved, pushing further those that have been successful, and implementing new, necessary objectives born from what was learned during the original strategic plan.   Roadmap 2.0 was designed to drive transformative change and accelerate progress across the entire plastics value chain to address plastic waste at its source and enable a just transition to a circular economy.   By working together across the plastics value chain, Activators have already:   — Decreased problematic and unnecessary materials from packaging from 14% to 8% — Increased the amount of reusable, recyclable, or compostable plastic packaging placed on the market from 37% to 47.7% — Increased use of postconsumer recycled content or responsibly sourced biobased content in plastic packaging from 7% to 9.4% As with the original Roadmap to 2025, these new Targets are interconnected; the success of one Target relies on the successful progress of the others. Evolved from its predecessor, the Targets of Roadmap 2.0 include:   1️⃣ Eliminate all items on the Problematic and Unnecessary Materials List and reduce the use of virgin plastic by 30% by 2030 2️⃣ Design and manufacture 100% of plastic packaging to be reusable, recyclable, or compostable 3️⃣ Effectively recycle 50% of plastic packaging and establish the necessary framework to recycle or compost packaging at scale 4️⃣  Achieve an average of 30% postconsumer recycled content or responsibly sourced biobased content across all plastic packaging 5️⃣ Identify viable reusable packaging systems and increase their implementation and scale by 2030, as part of reducing the use of virgin plastic The U.S. Plastics Pact and our Activators continue working towards a future where plastics and packaging exist within a circular economy. #RoadmapTo2025 #RoadmapToCircularity #USPlasticsPact Read Roadmap 2.0 today: https://lnkd.in/gcV8mD7

  • The cover page of Roadmap 2.0. Background is of a road through mountains, with the centered, all-capitalized title reading "U.S. Plastics Pact" in white smaller font above similarly styled but larger "Roadmap 2.0." in the center of the page. There is a dotted targeted path resembling the period in "2.0." that makes a right angle, going off the right side of the page. The bottom header has a white background and has the U.S. Plastics Pact logo on the far left. To more of the right, grey, all capitalized text reads "In Partnership With:" and the partnerships logos of The Recycling Partnership and WWF are beneath it. To the right of these logos reads "As Part Of:" with the Plastics Pact Network logo placed, and the text "The Plastics Pact Network Convened by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and WRAP."
