How Can We Quit Plastic? | Featuring Clara Williams Roldan | Co-author of ‘Quitting Plastic’ | A Thrivable Future: Episode 9
Description
Did you know that the average plastic bag is used for just 7 minutes before they're thrown out? They often end up in our waterways and our forests… hurting the creatures that live within them. By 2050, we are likely to have more plastic than fish in our oceans.
We know there’s a need to reduce plastic waste, but how?
Today we speak with Clara Williams Roldan, who wrote the book ‘Quitting Plastic’ with her mother, Louise Williams.
Currently working as an Impact & Education Director at Documentary Australia, and having previously worked as a policy and legislation advisor in the New South Wales Parliament, she knows first-hand the power of storytelling to drive meaningful action and change.
In this episode, we explore how plastic harms our environments, the difficulties of reducing plastic waste, and how we can motivate sustainable consumption and production.
Together, we can help our world thrive!
