Abstract
This article delves into the significance of glass packaging in the European container glass industry's sustainable development, emphasizing its role in achieving key UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Covering health benefits, sustainable consumption, climate action, and collaborative partnerships, the European container glass industry's commitment to a circular economy and carbon neutrality by 2050 is explored. The discussion encompasses the industry's advancements in circularity and the critical transition to green energy. The article highlights the industry's strides over the past 50 years and outlines its vision for a sustainable future. It also points to the role of a supportive policy and legislative framework in enabling a circular and climate-neutral economy.
期刊介绍：
The International Journal of Applied Glass Science (IJAGS) endeavors to be an indispensable source of information dealing with the application of glass science and engineering across the entire materials spectrum. Through the solicitation, editing, and publishing of cutting-edge peer-reviewed papers, IJAGS will be a highly respected and enduring chronicle of major advances in applied glass science throughout this century. It will be of critical value to the work of scientists, engineers, educators, students, and organizations involved in the research, manufacture and utilization of the material glass. Guided by an International Advisory Board, IJAGS will focus on topical issue themes that broadly encompass the advanced description, application, modeling, manufacture, and experimental investigation of glass.
