Just a grammatical mistake i wished to correct.


New petition description:

Through this petition, we are asking the EU to consider granting Japanese sake exemption from the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation. 

The EU Proposal for a Regulation on Packaging and Packaging Waste requires businesses to reuse or recycle containers (bottles, cans, boxes...) used for beverages and food products from 2030 onwards. 

In the terms currently in place, the regulation would already grant exemption to wine and spirits, while simply putting a halt to Japanese sake imports to EU as sake is not legally categorised as either wine nor spirit, and its bottles considered unsuitable for recycling due itstheir unusual sizes.
