Prior to the pandemic, jurisdictions around the world were making huge inroads towards developing circular plastics economies. Now, we’re using 250-300% more single-use plastics than we were before COVID-19, with potentially devastating consequences for our oceans, wildlife, and health.

Tough times call for brave, bold action from leaders across the plastics value chain and a systemic approach that includes upstream and downstream sources, recycling, reducing and substituting, and collection and disposal.

Join us as we explore not IF but HOW Canada can leverage the transition to a sustainable circular plastics economy as a strategy for post-COVID economic recovery. This session will identify the key strengths and weaknesses in our plastics system, as well as emerging opportunities. Be part of the group of leaders who shape our circular plastics economy.

   

This event is also an Official Side Events of the World Circular Economy Forum (WCEF), hosted by Sitra, the Finnish Innovation Fund, and its partners.
