Recycle - Documentary & Discussions

Solving Plastic from The Story of Stuff Project

Join us online to view and discuss two short documentaries from The Story of Stuff envisioning the community health of neighbors helping neighbors. This is the last discussion in a 4-part series.

During this Documentary and Discussion, we'll conclude our exploration of the Solving Plastic Series created by the Story of Stuff with funding from The 11th Hour Project. The two shorts will look at organizations that have sought ways to share and fix to meet the needs of neighbors.  

Solving Plastic Series

We invite you to join with others in the community in a conversation about our dependence on plastic. This 4-part series follows the documentary shorts created by the folks at The Story of Stuff Project to dive deep into our plastic world and explore some of the solutions creatives and ordinary folks are coming up with to nurture a more sustainable and equitable world.

• January 29 - Part 1 examines the effects of a disposable, plastic-centered economy.
• February 26 - Part 2 looks at a few of the solutions that reduce our dependence on plastic.
• March 25- Part 3 shares companies aiming to make reusable items we’ve come to see as having only one-time value.
• April 22 - Part 4 plants the seeds of what real recycling could be.

These viewings are made possible by the generosity of The Story of Stuff Project.
