SUMMARY:Managing the Planet: Packaging & Sustainability
DESCRIPTION:Packaging & Sustainability \nAlmost everything we purchase is packaged in some way\, and often then loaded into a plastic or paper bag for transport between store and home. In the US alone\, we use about 10 billion paper bags\, 100 billion plastic bags and 100 billion cardboard boxes each year. Is producing and using this much packaging environmentally sustainable? Can it be?  Where does all this stuff end up? Is recycling the answer? Join our discussion with experts from CSU. \nPanelists: \nDale Lockwood\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Biology and School of Global Environmental Sustainability\nCaroline Mitchell\, Waste Reduction and Recycling Manager\, City of Fort Collins\nTony Rappe\, Professor\, Department of Chemistry\nSteve Simske\, Professor\, Department of Systems Engineering \nModerator: Gene Kelly\, SoGES Faculty Research Liaison\, Director of the Agricultural Experiment Station and Associate Dean of Extension
