No time to waste: final webinar looking at plastic crisis

The final
webinar in a three-part series looking at plastic use and disposal – hosted by Plastic
Oceans Australia and Griffith University – will be held on 29 July.

The panelists
include ALGA President David O’Loughlin, Queensland Environment Minister
Leeanne Enoch, and the director-general of the Secretariat of the Pacific
Regional Environment Program, Kosi Latu.

They will look
at how the plastic crisis might be ameliorated with the support of local and state
governments, including how reliance on single-use plastics can be reduced and whether
packaging manufacturers should be partly accountable for change.

The webinar is free to all interested parties. The podcasts from the first two webinars are available for listening on the Plastic Oceans website.
