The plastic pollution crisis is massive, systemic, and urgent. Judith Enck founded Beyond Plastics in 2019 to end plastic pollution through education, advocacy, and institutional change. Her new book, "The Problem with Plastic: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It’s Too Late" is a call to action, exposing plastic’s impact on our health and the environment and empowering the reader, and each of us, to resist plastic’s toxic legacy. We, collectively, have the power and influence to effectively slow the production of plastic. Plastic pollution is not inevitable; it’s the result of choices made by businesses, governments, and, to a lesser extent, everyday people. By equipping people with knowledge, hope, and an arsenal of solutions, we can put people and the planet before plastic, and save ourselves while there’s still time.
Join co-author Judith Enck for a free talk with Joshua Ginsberg, PhD, president of Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, at the Sharon Town Hall to learn more about the plastic pollution crisis and the solutions outlined in this bold new book.
