Piermont Public Library: The Solution To Plastic Pollution

Press release from the Piermont Public Library:

February 18, 2022

Join us virtually on 2-22-22 for an in-depth discussion of our planet’s plastic crisis. From the extraction of component materials to various manufacturing processes, to its end destination in human bodies, waterways, and incinerators, plastic is an issue that needs to be tackled immediately. We will talk about the various points in plastic production and waste management where change can be made and how you can become involved in that change. This is not the “you just need to recycle more” approach; we will touch on producer responsibility, legislation, and community organizing to advance the Solutions to Plastic Pollution!

This program is presented and funded by ROCKLAND CCE in conjunction with a grant from O&R and sponsored by Dominican College. The program is in partnership with Piermont Public Library.
