Description
Lead presenter Maggie Eaton shares her experience of working on the Vermont plastics campaign since March 2019, including the passage history of the Vermont House and Senate plastics bills and how the new legislation will be implemented. She offers perspective on why this new law is so important - how plastics get into our environment, where they go and what they do to animals, us, and the natural world. Maggie also offers tips on how to live without single use plastics.
Co-presenter Ethan Hausman answers questions about plastics recycling in our community. He explains what makes a particular plastic item recyclable, how to interpret the “resin codes” on plastics, and helps clarify your understanding of bio-plastics and compostables.
