SUMMARY:Winter Webinar: 'Who’s Responsible for Waste? Rethinking Products & Packaging'
DESCRIPTION:Who should be responsible for managing waste? The consumer\, the government\, or the companies that make the products? Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) reimagines the answer to that question by pushing producers to share the responsibility for end-of-life product management\, ultimately encouraging products to be made with sustainability in mind. \n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, Jen Holliday\, CSWD’s Director of Public Policy & Communications\, will break down Vermont’s EPR landscape — from the basics of what EPR is to how EPR is changing Vermont’s waste future. \n\n\n\nWhether you’ve never heard of EPR before or you’re an EPR enthusiast\, this webinar will help you understand how this policy could change recycling and waste management across the state. \n\n\n\nOffered via zoom.
