The London Wine Fair 2023 (LWF23) has joined forces with the Porto Protocol and Sustainable Wine Solutions to collect new data by analysing the estimated 30k empty bottles consumed at the fair. The data sample will be used to inform reusable wine bottle schemes, in an effort to reduce carbon emissions. Reusing bottles is not new but is currently underutilised. It is also a pragmatic way to engage wine producers and consumers in moves towards sustainable and circular economy based solutions.
The emissions generated from packaging have been identified as the largest and wine professionals have been looking at alternatives and improvements. This was also discussed in my interview with winemaker and climate scientist, Dr Greg Jones in the Alentejo WASP series , last year.
Data drives big ideas for a better world
