SUMMARY:Common Recycling Myths Busted - Plastics
DESCRIPTION:Plastic recycling is surrounded by confusion. From claims that “all plastic can be recycled” to headlines declaring plastic recycling is a scam. The truth often gets lost in over simplification. The reality is more complex. In this webinar\, attendees will get details on the gap between public perception and industrial realities. Presenters will help attendees understand: \n\nThe top myths about plastic recycling and the facts that debunk them.\nHow recycling systems work\, including sorting\, processing and specific end markets.\nWhich plastics are recyclable today and which ones pose challenges.\nPractical actions we all can all take to drive meaningful changes in recycling plastics.\n\nThis session will help both sustainability professionals and anyone curious about recycling plastics feel informed\, empowered\, and equipped to cut through the misinformation. \nAfter registering\, you will receive an email from “EGLE Outreach” with a link for you to use to join the webinar. \nRegister HERE.
