About The Event
Ocean Plastics - A Panel Discussion
With a subject matter so wide - from supply chain and consumption to waste management and water treatment, the ocean plastic crisis is a topic regularly featured on the news. Scientists are finding micro-plastics in our tap water, the flesh of fish, filling stomachs of ocean-going birds and whales...coming from the 8 million tonnes of plastic going into our oceans every year.
As a non-coastal city but being at the top of a watershed, how are Calgarians responsible for their part in the bigger picture of the ocean plastics crisis? How does it really affect us, what is the real deal with plastics recycling, and what can we do?
Our featured panel of speakers are from Plastic-Free YYC, The City of Calgary and Alberta Plastics Recycling Association. Learn a little more about them each below!
