Idea: Create a recycling taxonomy that takes into account location

[aleene]

What

• It seems each country has it's own recycling approach. On packaging we see often different instructions for different countries. We have not yet found a good way to transcribe these instructions into the packaging-field. And the instructions are always the same.
• Seems a good idea to create a recycling taxonomy. This taxonomy should list all the countries, per country the recycling possibilities and per possibility what can be recycled. The latter should refer to the packaging taxonomy.
• If needed a country can be subdivided in regions or smaller entities.
• The required info can be gathered from the packaging.

Part of

• Knowledge panel - Recycling #5502

That is more a translation approach, which is also needed.
