Stop purchasing products from suppliers using plastic clamshell containers


Stop purchasing products from suppliers using plastic clamshell containers
The Issue
There is no market for recycled plastic clam shell containers in the United States so they are generally not recycled. With over 600 stores internationally, sales of these clam shell containers at Costco contribute to millions of tons of plastic being deposited into our landfills. Costco has an overwhelming opportunity to influence their suppliers to change their packaging to be more environmentally friendly and sustainable.
I'm certainly willing to pay an extra 50 cents on each product for a recyclable or compostable package, I hope you are as well.
