Evidence of the plastic pollution crisis reaffirms that we cannot recycle our way out of this mess. Preventing waste in the first place, plays a central role in the transition from a throw-away society to a zero waste one. In this webinar we will share different tools to promote, and enable waste prevention at source, through policies, business models, and community organizing.

A medida que la pandemia se agudiza en varios países de la región, se hace más evidente que los peligros que este virus representa no impactan a todas/os por igual.

Amid overwhelming plastic pollution and an exponential rise in plastic production, the fossil fuel industry has touted chemical or “advanced” recycling as a solution to the plastic crisis. However, through extensive research GAIA has uncovered that the true nature of “chemical recycling” falls far short of the industry hype. In fact, our findings show that chemical recycling is polluting, energy intensive, and has a track record of technical failures.
