We'll be Zooming this presentation from Victory Parkway to watch together at Adath Israel. The convenient plastic consumer items and packaging in our households are made from hundreds of chemicals from petrochemical factories that also produce oil and gas products--the very companies that are directly impacting the warming of the earth and causing climate change. What is the relationship between plastics and climate change? How can we change our consumer practices? Bob Gedert is semi-retired after a 45-year career in guiding communities toward sustainable materials management through a system approach, bridging recycling best practices and sustainability with local economic development practices.
