Join us on Friday 24th July 2020 for a deep-dive discussion on the key findings, and how industry, government and civil society can work together to substantially reduce projected ocean plastic pollution flows. The findings are based on a first-of-its kind model of the global plastics system, which estimates increases in plastic pollution under a business as usual scenario and examines the economic, environmental and social implications of six different strategies to address the problem. Our expert speakers will share insights from the report, as well as perspectives from industry, government and civil society. They include: Martin Stuchtey – Founder and Managing Partner, SYSTEMIQ Winnie Lau – Senior Manager, Preventing Ocean Plastics, The Pew Charitable Trusts José María Figueres – Former President, Costa Rica Sanda Ojiambo – CEO & Executive Director, UN Global Compact Alan Jope – CEO, Unilever Melati Wijsen – Founder, Bye Bye Plastic Bags Moderated by Louise Beale, journalist and presenter for Channel 5 News (UK) Please register to attend the main event.
