WILL WE BE ABLE TO USE RECYCLED PLASTICS OR SHALL WE DECIDE FOR PACKAGING FREE PRODUKCTION?

Recycled plastic and its use are imperative for preserving the environment, including proper plastic wash-out. Will we ever be able to push the Czech population and firms to use recycled material? Or is it happening spontaneously? A questionnaire created on Google Forms involves ten legislative and motivational questions comprising relevant data on the amount of plastic in municipal waste between 2010 and 2020 from the Czech Statistical Office. We found that the population understands the importance of using recycled material and recycled plastic without the government's impulse. Despite the high capital intensity, the state should impose taxes to protect the sustainable environment. We suggest a comprehensive and in-depth survey to acquire more accurate data.
