Recycled Content Mandates: The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly

Webinar January 6, 12:30 – 2 pm eastern

 

Recycled content mandates are growing in popularity as a policy mechanism to engage producers in responsibility for recycling markets, sharing in the costs of a functioning recycling system, and reducing climate change impacts. But not all recycled content mandates are the same, and some have the potential for unintended consequences.
