The article is from 2021, did any of those projects actually get implemented?

In the Netherlands we currently do all cans, all plastic bottles, and most small glass bottles.

In switzerland we incentivise it the opposite way.

You are taxed based on how much garbage you produce - what you recycled.

So people lose money if they don’t recycle cans/pet bottles.
