Great idea! So what legislative body would police the supermarkets? State EPA?

Hi! Thanks for you comment, I really appreciate it. 

In my opinion Ministry of Environment, it can work along with the ERP law, reaching this way the 100% of recollection. 

I saw you are a journalist, can you help me to promote it?

I published the very first article on Sweep-net.org on February 28, 2014.SWEEP-Net is the Regional Solid Waste Exchange of Information and Expertise Network that operate in Mashreq and Maghreb countries and in all the network’s member countries.On 2015, I was asked to write asecond article published on February 2nd 2015.Then, Academia.edu offered me an ideal platform to spread and promote it worldwide among stakeholders. So far today, in its different versions, BCvsPW has been visited almost 3500 times from more than 80 countries.

It has been recently introduced also to some important speakers at Our Ocean 2015 Conference in Valparaiso/Chile receiving warm appreciations.Nevertheless previously, Barcode v/s Plastic Waste has been read also by leading and prestigious experts in Europe and world wide.With the hope the idea could be included and discuss at by you and your colleagues, I mention the most important figures to whom it has been presented, such as:
