Where does supermarket soft plastic packaging really go?
Soft plastic recycling should not be a black box.
Follow the latest soft plastic packaging journeys.
KAP is following four more pieces of soft plastic packaging, one at a time.
Each tracker will help us ask what we know, what we do not know, and what questions the journey raises.
AirTags do not provide constant GPS tracking. They update when nearby Apple devices detect them through Apple’s Find My network.
No tracker has launched yet. KAP is preparing Tracker 1.
