AARC Webinar Shines Spotlight on Use of Recycled Plastic in Food & Beverage Packaging
29th June 2024 New Delhi, Delhi, India The Action Alliance for Recycling Beverage Cartons (AARC) recently organized a pivotal webinar titled “Use of Recycled Plastic Content in Food & Beverage Packaging.” The event gathered a diverse array of stakeholders, including industry leaders, regulatory bodies, sustainability experts, and environmental enthusiasts from several countries. This webinar was particularly significant in light of the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Guidelines mandating the use of recycled plastic content in packaging.
The webinar witnessed a panel of diverse, distinguished speakers including, Surojit Bose, Head Sustainability, Hindustan Coca Cola Beverages Pvt Ltd., Aditi Ramola, Technical Director, International Solid Waste Association (ISWA), Mr. K D Bhardwaj, Group Head – Environment and Energy Management, International Services, National Productivity Council, Jose Manuel Moller, Founder and Chairman of Algramo, Chile – a key innovator in the sustainable technology and climate tech sectors, Mr. Nikhil Patkar, Packaging Portfolio Manager, Tetra Pak South Asia team including India, Sri Lanka & Bangladesh, Valeria Branca, Project Manager Extended Producer Responsibility Alliance, Brussels, Levent Akici, Zero Waste Foundation, Turkey, and Dr. Praveen Aggarwal, CEO, AARC.
In collaboration with the United Nations Centre for Regional Development (UNCRD), United Nations Global Compact Network India, International Academy of Environmental Sanitation and Public Health (IAESPH), and 3R WASTE Foundation, the webinar aimed to foster dialogue on the recyclability of plastic packaging with a focus on the use of recycled plastics in packaging, hence overall reduction in plastic usage. It provided a platform for sharing best practices, exploring innovative recycling methods, and discussing cutting-edge solutions in plastic packaging.
The esteemed panel was moderated by Dr. Kulwant Singh – CEO, 3R Waste Foundation, and co-moderated by Dr. N B Mazumdar, Hon. Chairman, International Academy of Environmental Sanitation & Public Health (IAESPH).
The event witnessed an insightful discussion where panelists shared successful international strategies for integrating recycled content into packaging, offering valuable insights for the stakeholders. Speakers further highlighted the obstacles in sourcing and utilizing recycled materials, proposing practical solutions like chemical recycling based on global experiences. The panel further discussed the necessity of chemical recycling processes and mass balance approaches for validating recycled content to meet the upcoming EPR targets.
Moderating the panel, Dr. Kulwant Singh outlined the webinar’s focus on global practices in using recycled plastic in food and beverage packaging, the key provisions of India’s Plastic Waste Management Amendment Rules 2022, and the challenges in sourcing and incorporating recycled content. Co-moderator, Dr. Mazumdar emphasized the necessity of detailed dialogue among authorities, industries, health bodies, and the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) to come up with the right standards for Category II and III in food contact applications i.e. flexible and Multi Layered Packaging (MLP) on lines similar to RPet standards in Category I.
Further to the discussions, Mr. Nikhil Patkar explained the chemical recycling process, which involves converting collected recycled material into pyrolysis oil. This oil is then used to produce polyethylene granules, blending recycled and virgin oil, a process approved by EFSA and the USFDA.
Adding to the discussions, Ms. Valeria Branca, from EXPRA shed light on the regulations of the European Union, which provides that by January 1, 2030, the packaging will only be allowed on the EU market if it is recyclable within grades A, B, or C. Ms. Branca further also highlighted Art. 7 of EU, as per which the plastic parts of packaging must contain a minimum percentage of recycled content by a certain date in the future, which will increase the use of recycled content in packaging and will create a market for recycled materials in Europe, targeting specific recycling content goals for packaging by 2030 and 2040, differentiated by contact sensitivity.
The event concluded with closing remarks of Dr. Praveen Aggarwal, where he highlighted the importance of managing plastic waste in compliance with FSSAI regulations, ensuring that recycled plastic content is safe for food and beverage products, and consulting the entire value chain before setting standards, and need to expedite the formulation of the standard for the use of recycled plastics. He further extended his heartfelt gratitude to all participants, including industry leaders, officials, and environmental advocates, for their active involvement in the event. The webinar successfully advanced discussions on recycled plastic in food & beverage packaging, serving as a platform for building connections, sharing knowledge, and fostering a collective commitment to a sustainable and circular future.

Author Alexander Odishelidze and Carlos A. Chardón Unveil a Stark Warning About Chinese Influence in the Caribbean
Miami, FL, June 29, 2024 — Author, finance expert, and long-time political consultant Alexander Odishelidze’s influential book, “America’s Last Fortress: Puerto Rico’s Sovereignty, China’s Caribbean Belt and Road, and America’s National Security,” offers a critical examination of geopolitical dynamics in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean. The book has already achieved Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and Amazon bestseller status, but now includes bonus content in the form of a new foreword by Carlos A. Chardón, former SBA Director for the Caribbean and former Secretary of Education for Puerto Rico. The book has also recently been released as an audiobook on major online retailers.
Delivering a stark warning about the burgeoning influence of China in the Caribbean, with Puerto Rico at the epicenter, “America’s Last Fortress” explains how China’s Belt and Road initiative seeks unrestricted global access with Puerto Rico strategic positioning as the gateway to the Caribbean making it a prime target. As Puerto Rico inches towards independence, China’s opportunity to gain a foothold in the region becomes increasingly plausible, posing significant national security concerns for the United States.
Odishelidze, who has dedicated more than thirty years to advocating for Puerto Rico’s self-determination, presents an insider’s view of the political missteps and vested interests that have hindered the island’s decolonization process. He provides a comprehensive narrative of Puerto Rico’s political evolution—from the 1970s, when independence garnered less than 5% of the vote, to recent elections where nearly 50% of the electorate favored independence. This shift, according to Odishelidze, aligns ominously with China’s strategic interests.
The new foreword by Carlos A. Chardón, former Small Business Administration director for the Caribbean and former Secretary of Education of Puerto Rico, underscores the urgency and gravity of Odishelidze’s message. Chardón writes, “The author’s argument is devastating but it makes sense…. Odishelidze warns that the Island is the last US stronghold in the Caribbean because of its political relationship.”
Chardón elaborates on the broader geopolitical landscape, highlighting that Puerto Rico’s strategic importance has made it a target historically and continues to do so in the context of contemporary global power struggles. He notes, “On looking at a map of the Antilles: in the north is Cuba, in a silent struggle with the United States for sixty years; in the south, Venezuela… in the west, Nicaragua… and in the east is Puerto Rico.”

Kidney Care Partners Raises Concerns Around 2025 ESRD PPS Proposed Rule
Washington, DC, June 29, 2024 — Kidney Care Partners (KCP) – the nation’s leading kidney care multi-stakeholder coalition representing patient advocates, physician organizations, health professional groups, dialysis providers, researchers, and manufacturers – today released the following statement in reaction to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) proposed rule on End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Prospective Payment System (PPS), Payment for Renal Dialysis Services Furnished to Individuals with Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), End-Stage Renal Disease Quality Incentive Program (QIP), and End-Stage Renal Disease Treatment Choices Model (ETC):
While our members continue to review the proposed rule, KCP is deeply concerned about the sustainability of the program given that the market basket fails to reflect the actual increase in costs incurred by facilities. Moreover, we are disappointed that CMS did not heed the kidney care community’s call for reforms to address the barriers the current payment policies have created in terms of patients being able to access innovative treatment options. Without changes in these areas, dialysis patients who are, as CMS notes, “disproportionately young, male, African American, have disabilities and low income” will continue to experience significant inequities when compared to patients with other chronic diseases.
Despite these concerns, KCP supports CMS’ proposal to expand access to home dialysis for patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). Increasing access for AKI patients is particularly important, as it can improve outcomes and enable patients to recover kidney function, avoiding permanent kidney failure that can lead to a need for life-long dialysis or kidney transplant. KCP also appreciates CMS’ ongoing attention to the cost and operational challenges associated with moving historically unbundled drug products into the PPS and urges CMS to provide sufficient funding to support these activities which are not currently covered by the base rate. We are also pleased that CMS seeks to better direct resources to low-volume facilities through the two-tiered low-volume adjuster. Moreover, KCP is heartened that CMS has addressed the community’s concerns and has proposed to reinstate the four individual dialysis adequacy measures and to remove the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) dialysis event reporting measure.
Need for a Sustainable Market Basket that Reflects the Cost of Providing Care to Individuals Requiring Dialysis Services
CMS proposes a market basket increase (minus the productivity factor) of 1.8 percent, based on the existing market basket methodology. We appreciate that CMS is trying to address this issue, but the rule falls short of meeting the actual increase in costs that dialysis facilities have experienced. In addition to failing to capture actual inflationary costs for the fifth year in a row, the dialysis market basket increase has historically been the lowest among Medicare providers, making it extremely challenging for dialysis facilities to compete against the wages provided by other providers, such as hospitals, which have seen significant increases in additional funding in recent years.
KCP continues to urge CMS to reexamine the market basket methodology in light of actual cost data demonstrating increases and provide a more sustainable update.
The Current Post-TDAPA Policy Continues to Stifle Innovation, Despite Efforts to Address the Lack of Adequate Funding for New, Innovative Therapies in the Base Rate
KCP appreciates language in the preamble demonstrating that CMS recognizes that the current policies negatively impact patient access to new, innovative treatment options.
However, the proposed modifications do not go far enough to address the failure of the post-Transitional Drug Add-on Payment Adjustment (TDAPA) temporary base rate adjustment to meet its intended purpose of incentivizing access to new drugs and biological products. KCP had hoped that CMS would take a more patient-centric approach and reform this policy by revising its methodology in recognition that, as designed, the bundle does not include sufficient funding for new treatment options that address recognized gaps in care. As the real-world example of patients not being able to access the only FDA-approved drug to treat CKD-associated pruritis demonstrates, an inadequate payment rate for innovative products creates a significant barrier to patient access.
KCP urges CMS to consider the kidney care community’s concerns and looks forward to providing more specific feedback in forthcoming comments.

Surya Hospitals organizes a Health and Screening Camp with Tribal Community
29th June 2024 Mumbai, Maharashtra, India To promote health awareness and provide the necessary knowledge to the community, a health and screening camp on Sickle Cell Disease was organized by Surya Hospitals in the rural village of Vasai, Maharashtra recently.
The event featured educational talks by Dr. Vandana Bansal and Dr. Nisha Iyer, which reached over 100 students. Additionally, Adivasi residents at the camp were tested for the HPLB gene to evaluate their susceptibility to Sickle cell disease. Participants also had the opportunity to consult with doctors and receive valuable information on preventive care and healthy lifestyle choices.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Vandana Bansal, Director, Department of Fetal Medicine, Consultant Obstetrics & Gynecology, Surya Hospitals said, “Sickle Cell Disease is a genetic hemoglobin disorder common amongst the tribal population of India. According to the census, Scheduled Tribes constitute 8.6 per cent of the country’s total population and 11.3 per cent of the total rural population. Requiring lifelong management, Sickle Cell Disease contributes to significant morbidity and mortality amongst the affected infants and children. In India, there are many comprehensive guidelines for prevention of the disease developed jointly by the Government of Health and Family Welfare and the Government of Tribal Affairs. But because of lack of awareness those guidelines are not fructified. So, we have organized the camp to make people understand and give them a basic knowledge about the disease. Hope, through this initiative, we can strengthen our commitment to combating this disease.”
Dr. Nisha Iyer, Pediatric Hemato Oncologist and BMT Physician, Surya Hospitals stated, “The initiative aimed to enhance health literacy among college students and the Adivasi population, identifying individuals at risk of Sickle cell disease. Regular health screenings are important for early detection and prevention of diseases. Events like these play a vital role in promoting overall well-being and empowering individuals to take charge of their health.” She also added, “The success of the camp would not have been possible without the support of volunteers, and community members who came together with us to make this camp a reality. We, Surya Hospitals, extends its gratitude to all those who contributed to the success of the health camp.”
Sickle Cell is an inherited blood type disease in which a genetic mutation causes abnormal hemoglobin to clump together and soften red blood cells. Sickle cells cause blood clots, leading to bleeding, pain, infections and other serious problems. People with sickle cell disease carry only one defective gene and usually live normal lives, but they can pass that gene on to their children. Therefore, adults and newborns must undergo medical examinations for the disease.
