Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) has emerged as a cornerstone of modern environmental governance, shifting the burden of waste management from consumers and local governments to producers. In tandem, Truth in Recycling laws aim to ensure transparency and accuracy in recycling claims, reducing “greenwashing” and empowering consumers to make genuinely sustainable choices. This presentation examines how the convergence of EPR and Truth in Recycling statutes is reshaping the recycling regulatorylandscape in the United States and abroad. Drawing on case studies from leading jurisdictions, it explores thelegal and technical challenges of compliance, transparency, and market readiness. The analysis will also highlight structural gaps between policy intent and implementation, particularly around labeling standards, product design obligations, and infrastructure. Ultimately, the discussion offers a policy framework for aligning producer accountability with consumer trust, both of which will be essential to achieving a circular economy that is feasible, functional, and fit for purpose.
