From verdict to proposal

From verdict to fix

Winning ideas can move beyond debate. The Fixer drafts a practical, reviewable proposal that can adapt to local conditions — never an automatic policy decision.

PROPOSED FIX · CASE 003

Should packaging and recycling bins use the same symbols everywhere?

By 80% to 20%, the illustrative public vote favoured common recycling symbols — provided local acceptance rules remain visible.

The practical proposal

Publish an open, accessibility-tested set of material symbols; pair each with a plain local acceptance mark or digital lookup; and phase it into packaging and bins only as existing assets are replaced.

PROPOSED FIX · CASE 006

Should restaurants offer smaller portions on request?

By 75% to 25%, the illustrative public vote favoured making a smaller portion available on request when the restaurant can do so clearly and fairly.

The practical proposal

Add a plain “smaller portion available” marker to suitable dishes; explain price differences before ordering; measure returned plate waste; and adapt the offer to local dining customs rather than imposing it on every menu.
