Waste, Wishcycling & Greenwashing
August 11, 2024 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
Join a conversation with experts on what to do with your waste, why all those products marketed as “compostable” are not compostable, why reuse is the way to go, and a lot more, including how to encourage restaurants to be more sustainable and how to host a sustainable event. Bring (virtually!) all those items you have questions about and ask the experts!
Speakers:
- Bonny Bentzin, Deputy Chief Sustainability Officer, UCLA
- Dr Marcus Eriksen, Co-founder and Scientist, 5 Gyres
- Daniel Meyers, LA Sanitation & Environment
- Nicholas Nuchio, Environmental Engineer, Los Angeles Sanitation & Environment
- Kikei Wong, Sustainability Specialist, Athens Services
Bring (virtually) the items you’ve always wondered about—can you recycle it? compost it? What bin does it go in?
