Packaging waste accounts for around 40% of plastic waste around the world. Tens of millions of it go straight to landfills and their recyclability is simply ignored. Sustainable packaging expert Elizabeth Corbett is here to discuss what must be done to reduce our seemingly endless packaging waste. Joining Corinna Bellizzi, she presents innovative and greener solutions that could solve this alarming problem, from reusable containers to accessible refill systems. Elizabeth also discusses how consumers can contribute to boost the use of eco-friendly packaging and what must be changed in the federal government to finally solve the United States’ broken garbage system.
