We continue to champion this approach in support of the circular economy, as we have seen first hand not only its effectiveness in incentivising the removal of plastic from the environment, but the social impact that the additional income can bring to millions of informal waste pickers.<\/p>\n<p>We are proud to be working as part of this group of likeminded organisations on this
