I wanted to make sure you saw my email about the Earth Day Live digital event tomorrow at 11 am U.S. Eastern time. We're consulting with plastics experts from around the world on solutions to the expansive pollution problem.

Join the conversation! RSVP for Breaking Free from Plastics Dependence.

— Jake

Hi,

Did you know? In the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat — there is plastic.

Plastic pollution is a widespread, complex environmental and health emergency that requires global changes in policies, corporate sourcing, innovation and consumer behavior to solve. Grassroots action and restoration technologies are also needed to clean up plastic pollution wherever it is found. Like other environmental scourges, plastic impacts the poor among us most.

EARTHDAY.ORG invites you to the next installment of our Earth Day Live webinar series: Breaking Free from Plastics Dependence on Thursday, November 19th at 11am U.S. Eastern time.

Join us for the live event.

The webinar will be 60 minutes and hosted over Zoom. By RSVPing, you'll receive a link to the webinar and you’ll be able to ask questions during the Q&A. If you can’t connect over Zoom, we’ll also be streaming the event over Facebook.

Our panelists include:

• Alex Schulze — CEO and Co-Founder of 4ocean
