• Source is ‘Living Planet Report 2008’ – WWF • You have to understand ‘Living planet index’ – LPI = is an indicator of the state of global biological diversity, based on trends in vertebrate populations of species from around the world • In last 35 years LPI decreased 30%!

• You have to understand ‘Ecological Footprint’ – It is a measure of human demand on the Earth's ecosystems. It compares human demand with planet Earth's ecological capacity to regenerate. • It doubled in last 45 years! • Today we consume 30% more than capacity to regenerate

• • • You have to understand ‘Ecological Debtor’ All red countries are ecological debtors Their demand is bigger than own capacity You see more red countries in 2005 compared to 1961 Continuing like today means we will need 2 planets in 2030!

• Statement: We only have 1 planet • Switch to sustainable resources • Recon Packaging = Sustainable!

• Results is in favor for recon drums • What about IBCs? use analogy with reuse of steel drums

System boundaries of the steel drum supply chain • The system boundaries used for calculating CO 2 emissions for the steel drum supply chain includes: • Manufacturing of steel • New steel drum manufacturing • Drum reconditioning • Tauw did not take into account: • Filling at customer • Emptying at end user • Mining • Steel recycling • Transport of raw materials & drums

System boundaries of the steel drum supply chain • All excluded items would be identical for new as for recon • In fact mining is extra needed for new drums! So if it was included it would be in favour for recon drums

• This is the logo of our campaign • And that pack 2 care gives them sustainable solutions!
