FEDERATION OF WESTERN OUTDOOR CLUBS







9.
A NEAT IDEA





ISSUE
Overpackaging and over-burdening landfills.

STATUS

A few dedicated environmentalists in desperation over excessive packaging of most goods have been mailing back to the manufacturers these wrappings with suitable appropriate remarks.

WHAT TO DO

The Federation of Western Outdoor Clubs suggests to its member clubs and their individual members that if many more packaging returns were received by presidents of companies, changes in packaging would probably come about.  Emphasis should be made in letters of the need not only to limit or omit unnecessary packaging but to require packaging materials that are biodegradable or readily recyclable.
