Walk down the aisles of almost any grocery store and you’ll see it everywhere: plastic-wrapped vegetables, fruit in plastic containers, and plastic bottles lining the shelves. 95% of this packaging is designed for just one use, and it can release microplastics and harmful chemicals into our food. Not long ago, milk was readily available in glass, and fruits and vegetables were sold without plastic packaging. So how did plastic become so deeply embedded in our food system—and how do we get it out?

On October 14, Plastic Pollution Coalition will host a webinar exploring the risks of plastic food packaging and how to unwrap our food systems. Getting plastic off our tables shouldn’t be a personal choice problem: it’s a policy problem. And it’s one we can solve.

Joining the discussion will be Alexandra Bookis, Outreach Director for Government Affairs, Environmental Working Group (EWG); Sybil Bullock, Senior Oceans Campaigner, Greenpeace USA; and Rachel Bustamante, Policy Manager, Plastic Pollution Coalition. The webinar will be moderated by Julia Cohen, Co-Founder & Executive Director, Plastic Pollution Coalition.
