  • Pepsico Pledges $650,000 to Help Clean up Australia
    MEDIA RELEASE 25 February 2020 PepsiCo pledges $650,000 to help Clean Up Australia PepsiCo and Clean Up Australia, together with REDcycle and Replas aim to build a circular economy initiative for sporting facilities Today, PepsiCo and Clean Up Australia have announced a new partnership to launch a three-year program called, Greening the Green, aimed at educating consumers on soft plastic recovery and increasing soft plastic recycling across Australia. Despite Australia’s recycling rate growing by over 50 per cent since 1996, waste to landfill has not decreased. According to the Australian Plastics Recycling Survey from 2017 – 2018, of the 3.4million tonnes of plastics consumed in Australia, less than 10 per cent was recycled. PepsiCo has pledged $650,000 (AUD) to support Greening the Green, which will see Clean Up Australia, PepsiCo and REDcycle (with support from Replas) partner with 110 local sporting facilities across the country. Greening the Green will consist of a 12-week module program to improve existing waste management and resource recovery by changing behaviour and providing better waste management resources. Upon successful completion of the 12-week program, each sporting facility that takes part will receive recycled plastic equipment such as table settings and benches made by Replas, one of Australia’s leading manufacturers of products made from soft plastics. The program aims to restore confidence in recycling across the country and support a circular economy for plastics by showing Australians that what they put in the bin, can be transformed into items the community can use. Danny Celoni, CEO PepsiCo Australia and New Zealand, says, “We are thrilled to partner with Clean Up Australia and REDcycle to launch Greening the Green and create a program that will work towards our goal of building a world where plastics never become waste.
