I think governments and people should do more to recycle, especially plastics.

-I think it should be law to recycle and all offenders should be fined heavily (public and industry).
-I also think there should be limits on mixed material packaging, so it is easier to recycle.
LAST IDEA, different types of household plastic could have different colour tinges to them (again make this law) e.g. PET could be light green, HDPE could be light yellow so it is easier to separate and recycle.
