No to plastic tax, yes to the tax on the dumps
And if instead of the plastic tax we would focus on the dumps?
This is the thinking of Luis Cediel Blanco, general manager of ANAIP, Spanish association of plastic producers, that is part of Esplasticos.
A change of direction that would shift the focus of the taxation on those waste that should have been recycled but have not.
The spanish proposal will encourage recycling?
It might be.
But what about the sustainable taxes to promote good practices and virtuous behaviour?
Probably it would be more appropriate a constructive approach that foresee more incentives for all the companies investing in innovation and circularity?
