  • Summary Report of the Big Bottle Tour – for a Victorian Container Deposit Scheme
    SUMMARY REPORT OF THE BIG BOTTLE TOUR – FOR A VICTORIAN CONTAINER DEPOSIT SCHEME PRESENTED TO THE LEADER OF THE OPPOSITION IN VICTORIA, THE HON. MATTHEW GUY “VICTORIA SAYS YES TO CDS” 30 May 2018 BIG BOTTLE TOUR 2018 FOR A CONTAINER DEPOSIT SCHEME IN VICTORIA Over two weeks in April we executed a crowd-funded campaign action: The Big Bottle Tour! Supported by local allies, we travelled 2,500 km with a 3-metre-long coke bottle in tow visiting ten regional towns. Our aim was to raise awareness and ask country Victorians and local politicians their views on a container deposit scheme (CDS) for Victoria. We heard many stories and got a real sense of the overwhelming support and increasing frustration at being left behind: “Why don’t we have this already?”, “We should have introduced this years ago” and “This makes so much sense!” were the most common replies. Victorians feel that they are missing out on substantial fundraising opportunities, while also having to put up with so much more litter than neighbouring states. During the tour, 840 people added their names to our petition list (totalling 2,832 manual and 4,608 online petitions) calling for CDS in Victoria. We have received feedback that, following our visit, many people reached out to their local politicians and demanded action on CDS. In addition, we received very warm welcomes and support from many councils, because they know a container refund scheme will help solve their recycling issues, decrease their costs and increase their revenue. The containers1 we have delivered to your electorate office today are a token of the growing frustration from Victorians at your lack of action on this issue, representing the following places and towns: STAWELL WARRNANBOOL PORT FAIRY HAMILTON MILDURA ECHUCA BEECHWORTH BENDIGO CASTLEMAINE BALLARAT CLEAN UP – London Road CLEAN UP – Henty Hwy near outside of Stawell2 Mooralla3 Victoria will soon be the only mainland state without a 10 cents container deposit scheme.
