Nestle green-lights push for green packaging, Greenpeace not convinced via SABCNewsOnline

The maker of KitKat chocolate bars and Nescafe instant coffee has vowed to make 100% of its packaging recyclable or reusable by 2025, one of the goals of the Institute for packaging sciences in the western Swiss city of Lausanne.

In previous years, Nestle has faced flak from environmental protection groups, notably Greenpeace, which identified the company as one of the biggest producers of plastic waste that is polluting landfill sites and oceans. Greenpeace has also criticised Nestle’s lack of action to address the problem. Greenpeace has been organising various actions to protest Nestle’s plastic production. Earlier this year, the group laid out a giant banner on Lake Leman urging Nestle to halt the use of single-use plastic packaging.
