Zero Waste: Switching to Reusables

Join IREJN for a webinar on how you can switch your religious school or house of worship to reusable

Switching to reusables
Wednesday, January 15 
11 a.m. - 12 noon CENTRAL time

Schools are one of the biggest users of single-use plastic disposables for dishes and cutlery. When they are thrown out, they end up in landfills or incinerators. Switching to reusables not only reduces plastic pollution, it also reduces cost - after the initial investment, reusables pay for themselves quickly and then save towns money year after year.

Join Amber Schmidt from Clean Water Action as she gives an online presentation about her work in Middletown, where the public schools have switched to resuables.

Thanks for the link!

 

For those who haven’t seen it yet, may I offer Notpla (https://www.notpla.com/), which offers seaweed-based cutlery and packaging, now for sale online.

 

Notpla  (“Not Plastic”) is a 2022 winner of the Earthshot Prize for their work and is featured in a PBS-broadcast special, “The Earthshot Report,” which aired two nights ago.

 

Spot on for the topic!
