Analytical Report: Coca Cola Waste Management Involvement

Due Date

Introduction

Large amounts of plastics are being produced every day, and the problem is growing bigger and bigger as many companies struggle to engage in the recycling method to manage these wastes. Still, recycling is also growing ineffective day by day. This has prompted companies like Coca-cola to define new ways to manage their wastes. The company has been engaged in different methods to ensure that they reduce their plastic waste in the environment. For instance, in 2018, the Coca-Cola Company launched the world without waste initiative, which would measure their plastic packaging around the world (Coca-Cola Company, n.d.). The main problem is to ensure the efficiency and the cost-effectiveness of the program. In this proposal, the focus is to define the best methods that the company would use to reduce the amount of plastic waste they release to the economy and how they can effectively reuse their engagement.

Problem Statement

The company is keen on engaging in processes and environmental programs that help them in driving their program. As fore stated above, due to 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 on a hunt for effective strategies that would enable the management of these wastes as part of their initiative to ensure that they renew the focus of their packaging life cycle. The major challenge is how they will reduce their dependency on plastic materials and how to their plastic waste on the environment.

Audience

The Primary audience for this proposal is the head of the environmental conservation and waste management department at Coca-Cola Company, Mr. Ian John. My secondary audience will be the chief production line manager, Mr. Leon Rodriguez, in charge of the production line processes. Other audiences would be the managers of the different subsidiary companies of the coca-cola and their various waste management officers in the subsidiary companies. This audience is motivated and eager to engage in the waste management process to reach the coca-cola company packaging revolution. The audience is focused on ensuring that the company's productivity levels continue and the cost of the integration of these processes will be effective to the company.

The World without Waste Initiative

The company has this strong belief that creating a circular economy with no waste is possible. This is what led to the creation of the bold initiative of the world without waste. This is one of the initiatives to ensure that either they encourage reuse or make them more recyclable or reduce the production of these wastes from their production line. The world packaging problem is growing. It is up to the companies to develop better ways to reduce plastics packaging disasters or identify ways to modify their production lines to reduce plastic usage.

The focus of Coca-cola is to create sustainable business practices that would ensure that they reduce their waste production. In the outline of this initiative, the company seeks to collect and recycle all its bottles and cans by 2030 (Quincey, 2018). This initiative is focused on relooking on their packaging procedures which led to the introduction of the PlantBottle packaging in 2009. The company is now focused on the creation of 100% recyclable packaging cans. The company now seeks commitment to ensure that they reuse most of their cans by 2025. This has prompted the involvement of different stakeholders to ensure that there is a continuation of the progress of this initiative.

Alternatives Methods to Reduce Plastic Usage

Away from the signed pact with other companies to encourage the reduction of plastic packaging with different companies worldwide, the company could employ alternative methods to ensure they reduce plastic packaging. The company can control the production line process and use raw of materials to reduce the plastic output. For instance, utilization of plant raw materials to define their new packaging. This will produce cans that are not only biodegradable but also reusable. This technology is used by companies such as Swiss food and McDonald's (UNEP, 2018). Even though these are food companies' similar manipulation can be applied to any production plant. For instance, creating a production line that would require the production of cans made from stiff paper and lined with aluminum for packaging.

Company Environmental Engagement

Coca-Cola has been very much involved in funding and participating in plastic wastes collection in different operating countries especially considering their cans and bottles. A successful scenario is in Canada, in which about 77% of their containers were collected (Coca-Cola Company, n.d.). They have also been involved in the participation with the government bodies and other stakeholders to encourage increased funding for the collection of plastics and cans.

Cost-Effectiveness of the Processes

So far, the Coca-cola company's involvement in the waste process is cost-effective as the company seeks to improve its engagements in the process. The proposal will increase the cost-effectiveness of the process to ensure that the vision will be kept alive for as long as possible. The cost-effectiveness of all processes is the initiative's central drive as major stakeholders get involved, and the business needs to keep moving.
