What is a Bottle Bill?

Bottle bills are designed to encourage recycling and reduce litter by assigning a financial value to beverage containers such as plastic bottles, glass bottles, and aluminum cans. These programs have been adopted in several regions worldwide and have proven effective in increasing recycling rates and conserving resources. By creating a closed-loop system, bottle bills support circular economy principles and help divert large volumes of recyclable material from landfills and the natural environment.
