The vast majority (85%) of people in Scotland say that glass should be included in Scotland’s 20p Deposit Return Scheme, according to new figures released by ACR+ member Zero Waste Scotland. In stark contrast, a mere 8% say it should not be included.
Under the recycling scheme, people will pay a 20p deposit when buying drinks in a plastic or glass bottle or a metal can. They will get their money back when they return them to be recycled.
