Memorandum

To: Ian John, the Head of Environmental Conservation and Waste Management Authority, Coca Cola Company

Subject: Proposal for Proper Plastic Waste Management

Introduction

The amount of plastic produced today is about 350 million tonnes worldwide, and only about 11% of this value is being recycled. With its value, the extent of the plastic population in the environment has increased, and almost every part of the ecosystem has plastic or plastic materials from the land, water, and the air. This is a lot of plastic that may lead to an environmental and climate crisis shortly. The Coca-cola Company has been a long-time user of plastic materials in their packaging and production lines. This extensive plastic is due to the company considering cheap production cost, reliability, and versatility. The proposal will help the company develop an effective way and engagement that would limit the amount of plastic waste on the environment.

Statement of Problem

Plastic production continues, and this colony will continue to occupy our oceans, lakes, and landfills. With more production and companies' inability to take care of their plastics, acceptable methods should be developed to manage the plastic waste in our environment. The coca-cola company is seeking new methods that would help minimize the plastic waste that they release to the environment. The major challenge is how they will reduce their dependency on plastic materials and how to their plastic waste on the environment.

Proposed Solution

One possible solution to the reduction in the development of alternatives is to reduce plastic usage. The company should develop alternative methods of packaging that will reduce the use of plastics in their production lines. With only 11% of the total 350 million tons of plastic wastes being recycled, usage reduction could best mitigate the problem. This should involve the commitment by the company production and business management to find effective ways to reduce the use of this colony. Manufacturing using recyclable packaging will also be a big step towards the management of these wastes. However, this requires a commitment to ensure that the company follows up on their production amounts and amount dispatched to create a circular economy that will ensure their wastes back to the company and its subsidiaries for recycling in one way or other for reuse in their lines. Hence, alternative management of plastics should be developed, such as using these wastes to develop other products that could be used in other sectors such as construction and energy production. Personal responsibility is also important to reduce the amount of plastic usage.

Scope

To assess the different methods which can be used to reduce the amount of plastic in the environment, the following topics will be considered:

1. What is the major impact of engagement in plastic waste management activities for the company and its revenues?

2. What are some of the initiatives they have taken to ensure responsibility for their plastics products?

3. How will the company benefit from the management of plastics and commitment to create a circular economy of operation?

Methods

The data to be used in the experiment will be majorly drawn from publications on the effects of plastics on the general environment, the history of plastic usage and other informational websites on the environment, and documentaries on the efforts to combat the plastic pandemic. Another data was obtained from the Coca-cola company management sector and their publications on methods to manage the wastes.

Conclusion

There is a dire need to save the environment from plastic wastes. Efforts should be made to find better solutions to problems by both individual, corporate, and government agencies. Using the topic highlighted above, it would be possible to define a better method to reduce plastic wastes.
