That is a great rate to achieve, though I guess it might be fairer to have a deposit system, so that consumers who responsible take their used bottles back to a specific recycling point (via the store) get the money back, and only the polluters pay. Though ideally we should be avoiding plastic bottles anyway, where possible.

Thanks for the feedback - it's always good to hear stories from around the world about how the issue is being tackled.
