In 2021, thanks to our volunteers and Online Volunteers via UNV platform, we released a report assessing how Europe was doing in reducing single use plastics. We want to update this report and release it in June 2023. The 2021 report, can be found here: https://rethinkplasticalliance.eu/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/SUP-Assessment-Design-final.pdf
All the names of the contributors, including from the UN platform, were cited at the beginning of the report.
In order to update our understanding of the situation in Luxembourg and draft a report, we are looking for the following information to be compiled in a word document:
Identification of the articles in the national laws that were adopted following the adoption of the EU directive in 2019 on single use plastics that concern SUP tobacco-related items;
Short paragraph on where the discussion stands/ answer to the following question: were there any new developments between September 2022 and now regarding the measures on SUP tobacco-related items?
Compile links to 3 or 4 articles released in 2022 and 2023 in the Luxembourgis national media on cigarette butts/tobacco pollution and write a short summary on the content of each one of these articles.
We are looking for English and Luxembourgis speaking volunteers interested in doing research on measures against single use plastics in Luxembourg and report them back to us in a short briefing document in English.
