The document discusses the PRN (Packaging Recovery Note) system introduced in the UK to meet packaging waste recycling targets by creating a market for packaging waste collection through the issuance and trading of PRNs, noting that the PRN system has helped stimulate substantial growth in UK packaging waste recycling and recycling infrastructure investment. The Environment Exchange marketplace has played a key role in facilitating over 1 million tons of annual PRN trading to help obligated packaging producers prove compliance with recycling obligations.

Yes systems engineering, you are a disciplineJoseph KAsser
Systems engineering is currently characterized by conflicting and contradictory opinions on its nature. The paper begins by describing the evolution of systems engineering in the National Council on Systems Engineering (NCOSE)/ International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) and the difficulty in defining and differentiating systems engineering as a discipline. The paper then identifies and discusses six different and somewhat contradictory camps or perspectives of systems engineering. After identifying the cause of the contradictions the paper suggests one way to reconcile the camps is to dissolve the problem to distinguish between the activity known as systems engineering and the role of the systems engineer with a return to the old pre-NCOSE systems engineering paradigm. The paper then continues by testing the hypothesis and shows that systems engineering is a discipline that can be differentiated from other disciplines. However, it is not a traditional engineering discipline.

ACRL 2013 panel with Sean Stone and Natalie Tagge. Audio available at https://www.evernote.com/shard/s35/sh/e086204a-7928-4aac-b96f-a073277fe77a/eb7866b50131d7c23fd7553cc8f33a7c
Description: "Is library instruction madness making it difficult to take a step back and really assess your program’s effect on student learning? Find out how one library is using three interconnected pilots, instructor portfolios, curriculum mapping, and information literacy rubrics to provide a scalable structure to assess and enhance student learning. The presenters will outline the initiatives’ implementations at their library and offer best practices to inspire audience members to adopt one or more method locally."

Angus Macpherson. The PRN system. Introducing a free market to packaging waste collection.
1. The PRN system: Introducing a
free market to packaging waste
collection
Angus Macpherson
Managing Director, The Environment
Exchange
Eco-Invest 2012, Kiev

2. Outline
• Setting the scene
• What is the challenge?
• The Packaging Cycle
• What is a PRN?
• How do you price a PRN – Theory and Practice
• What has the system achieved?
• Conclusion
3. Why me?
• Involved with Producer Responsibility in the UK
from 1997
• Consultee to the Office of Fair Trading in the UK
on Producer Responsibility
• Founder member of the CO2 Emissions Trading
Group in the UK
• Involved in the development of the Renewables
Obligation in Europe and the UK
• I was asked!
4. Setting the scene
1. Local Authorities have a statutory obligation in
the UK to collect waste from domestic
households and dispose of it.
2. Domestic households all pay council tax to the
Local Authority.
3. Businesses pay rates to the Local Authority but
are responsible for the costs of their own waste
disposal.
4. All inputs into landfill sites are taxed by
National Government.
5. No funds from Producer Responsibility regimes
go directly to National or Local Governments.
5. What is the challenge?
1. To prove that the target percentage of
packaging handled in the UK has been
recycled.
2. Target percentage = total packaging waste
recycled / total packaging waste handled.
3. Steps to achieve it:
a. Find out how much packaging is handled in the UK
b. Find out how much UK packaging waste is recycled
c. Stimulate growth to the requisite target
6. The Packaging Cycle

7. What is a PRN
Evidence issued by a reprocessor accredited by the
appropriate Agency:
of the acceptance of packaging waste for reprocessing
And:
required by obligated companies and compliance schemes as
their representatives as evidence of compliance
And:
required by compliance schemes as evidence of investment in
new reprocessing and collection activities
11. Conclusions
1. The PRN system has risen to the challenge.
2. The PRN system has contributed to packaging
waste recycling growth.
3. The PRN system has injected substantial funds
into the UK recycling infrastructure delivering
genuine environmental benefits.
4. The PRN system has proved itself flexible
when crisises have arisen.
12. What is t2e?
