Dear Bill,

I saw the message from Russia about the lack of plastic recycling there. You
might want to call attention to the fact that companies like Coca-Cola have
to take responsibility for recycling their packages throughout Europe and in
many parts of Asia. It would not be difficult for Russia to require EPR as
well. For an overview of EPR your Russian contact can download my
article--"EPR--What Does it Mean? Where is it Headed? from the INFORM
website---INFORMINC.org.
