ALT NAPCOR and Positively PET infographic titled “PET Forward: A Decarbonization Roadmap for the PET Packaging Value Chain.” It shows a practical path for the US PET plastic industry to lower emissions: approximately 57% lower emissions intensity and 42% lower total annual emissions by 2050; the latter is equivalent to taking approximately 323,000 gas-powered passenger vehicles off the road. Strategies include increasing collection and recycling, using more recycled PET and renewable energy, continuing lightweighting, advancing efficiency and innovation, and strengthening policy and infrastructure. The infographic also outlines actions for brands and notes that the roadmap is grounded in rigorous, ISO-compliant analysis. Call to action: napcor.com/sustainability.
