Statiegeldalliantie: 730 cities for deposit return systems
Idea
A coalition of municipalities pushing for bottles that come back The Statiegeldalliantie (Deposit Return System Alliance) has grown to include approximately 730 cities and municipalities across Belgium and the Netherlands, all committed to supporting binding deposit return systems for beverage packaging. The alliance unites local governments, civil society organisations, and businesses in a shared advocacy coalition. What the Statiegeldalliantie does - Coordinates political pressure on national governments to mandate deposit return systems - Documents the environmental and economic case for bottle and can deposits - Connects municipalities with reuse solution providers ahead of future regulation - Celebrates member cities that already pilot local reuse and return schemes How to engage - Residents: ask your mayor or councillor whether your municipality has joined the Statiegeldalliantie - Businesses: return beverage containers via existing deposit points; advocate with your trade association for deposit return expansion - Municipalities not yet in the alliance: contact Fair Resource Foundation to join Why it matters 730 municipalities representing millions of residents signal to national parliaments that deposit return is a political priority: not just an environmental ask. When local governments coordinate at this scale, national legislation follows. Source & repost Shared here so you can get inspired or find action already happening near you.
