For a world overrun by single-use plastics, reuse systems offer a clear path forward. Reuse systems can drastically cut plastic use and pollution and build local economies. Non-toxic, plastic-free reuse is the ultimate solution to protect our health—but is not without its challenges.
On July 21, Plastic Pollution Coalition hosted a webinar to present exciting reuse applications in schools and universities, senior living facilities, stadiums and other event spaces. We will also discuss the current barriers for implementing and expanding reuse, and how individuals, organizations, businesses, and policymakers can support the transition.
Joining the discussion was Alison Cove, Founder & CEO, USEFULL; Crystal Dreisbach, CEO, Upstream; and Dr. Manasa Mantravadi, Founder & CEO, Ahimsa. The webinar was moderated by Madison Dennis, Senior Policy and Advocacy Manager, Plastic Pollution Coalition.
