UPCOMING DEADLINE FOR THE SPECIAL ISSUE: Novel Approaches to Sustainable Consumption and Production in the Global South Details can be found here: journals.sagepub.com/page/jtf/speci… #jtf #callforpapers #sustainableconsumption #globalsouth @SageJournals

We had an inspiring two days at the @World_Wildlife #PlasticPolicy Summit, discussing plastic pollution issues and focusing on collaborative solutions. Our Head of Plastics Initiative, @Erica__Nunez, spoke on an insightful panel about Optimizing Product Design. She leveled with the audience on the lack of current plastics' circularity in our existing system. She also emphasized the need to systemically change the plastics' life span by designing materials that are safe and can contribute to successful models for #recycling, #reuse/refill, Extended Producer Responsibility (#EPR) legislation, and other solutions. Learn more about what we do to reach those goals and how you can be involved: oceanfdn.org/initiatives/pl… #PlasticPollution #GlobalPlasticsTreaty #endplasticpollution
