tal claims are overseen by the Competition Bureau who archived its enforcement guidelines on environmental claims last year. In the U.S., the Federal Trade Commis- sion oversees consumer protection and competition is- sues, and is currently consulting on potential changes to their Green Guides which provide guidance on the use of environmental and recycling claims. And in Europe, the European Union is apparently reviewing the definition of what counts as “recyclable” as they look to overhaul their packaging waste law. Given recent enforcement activity surrounding environ- mental claims, and confusion around some of the terminol- ogy – recovery, collection, recycling, diversion, end mar- kets – PPEC will be looking to address some of the issues with definitions, how it impacts data, and how they relate to environmental claims over the next year. Carbon & Climate Change PPEC continues to monitor government and industry climate change and carbon reduction initiatives. While paper-based packaging is highly recyclable and recycled across Canada and made from a renewable resource us- ing sustainable forest management practices, we are cur- rently gathering available data related to carbon emissions of paper packaging material.
