r/worldnews - The Quebec government is introducing new measures to improve its recycling system by placing more responsibility on companies when it comes to the waste management of their products. They will be in charge of the recovery, sorting, packaging and recycling of their products.

This is exactly what needs to happen around the world. Taxes added to combat pollution just get passed onto the consumer, which changes nothing. There is an EU principle to that effect: the one who places it in the market is responsible for its removal.
