Green Dot (Der Grüne Punkt)

Green Dot (Der Grüne Punkt) is an international recycling system that helps reduce packaging waste. Companies that sell products in certain European countries pay a fee to participate in the program. This fee funds the collection, sorting, and recycling of packaging materials after consumers use them, ensuring they don't end up as pollution. The Green Dot symbol on packaging indicates that the manufacturer supports and participates in this system, promoting environmental responsibility and sustainable waste management. Essentially, it's a way for businesses and consumers to contribute to recycling efforts and environmental protection.
