2025 in Luxembourg: a future without disposable packaging

Recycling is widely seen as the ideal way to tackle the pollution of our packaging. In short, the idea is to put their production in a perfect loop, where materials are reused over and over again and no raw materials need to be extracted.

A Europe without waste is the main objective for which the eponymous association Zero Waste Europe is working. Thanks to their lobbying and animation of a particularly active network, the concept is gaining ground.

Did you know that 10% of the wood cut down, 20% of the aluminium extracted, 40% of the plastic created and 50% of the glass produced are mainly used to make single-use packaging? In a world of finite resources, the disposable economy based on the principle of produce-consume-throw-away is increasingly showing its limits.

Dive into the heart of the Musée du Déchet, an ephemeral and nomadic museum, to discover the future of our waste.
