What You’ll Learn
“Clear as Plastic” will be interactive, myth-busting, and packed with takeaways you can put into practice right away. Here’s a sample of what we’ll cover:
- “Is plastics recycling a hoax?” We’ll break down this controversial question, including why plastics are more complicated compared to other materials in the recycling system—and how that impacts what can and can’t be recycled.
- “How did we get here?” We’ll guide you through an overview of the plastics industry—how production exploded, who’s responsible, and how policy, profit, and public perception have collided.
- Plastic reduction tips that actually work. From smarter shopping to easy swaps that reduce single-use plastics in your home, you’ll walk away with practical tools to reduce your plastic use.
And, we’ll have plenty of time for a live Q&A session. No question is too basic—bring your curiosity, your frustration, and your “What do I do with this?” questions!
