Episode 19: What does fracking have to do with plastic? Part 2 w/David Azoulay
Wednesday, 19 June, 2019
The plastic lifecycle starts with oil and gas extraction and extends through manufacturing, consumer use, and waste management. David Azoulay, Director of the Environmental Health Program at the Center for International Environmental Law (CIEL) and coauthor of “Plastic & Health: The Hidden Costs of a Plastic Planet” report, details potential exposures and health impacts at each stage of the plastic lifecycle. He suggests that organizations collaborate to create one compelling narrative addressing the entire lifecycle, working together to find solutions to plastic’s toxic legacy.
