Produktbeschreibung
Container deposit legislation are laws passed by city, state, provincial, or national governments that require that a deposit on carbonated, milk, water or alcoholic beverage containers be collected when the beverage is sold. When the container is returned to an authorized redemption center, or the original seller in some jurisdictions, the deposit is partially or completely refunded to the consumer. Governments may pass container deposit legislation for several reasons: to encourage recycling and complement existing curbside recycling programs; to specifically reduce beverage container litter along highways, in lakes and rivers, and on other public or private properties (where beverage container litter occurs, a nominal deposit provides an economic incentive to clean it up; this is in fact a significant source of income to some homeless individuals and non-profit civic organizations); to extend the usable lifetime of taxpayer-supported community or regional landfills, and; to protect children by effectively reducing the incidence of glass lacerations in childhood.
