Centre for Stories
Join Rebecca and Sisonke for a discussion about the plastic pollution crisis, personal solutions, the growth of the global Plastic Free July challenge, change-making and how to write a book with someone you’ve never met before.
This book shows how one of the world’s leading environmental campaigns took off and shares lessons from its success. From marine debris research expeditions to tracking what actually happens to our waste to sharing insights from behavioural research, it speaks to the massive scale of the plastic waste problem and how we can tackle it together. Interweaving interviews from participants, activists, and experts, Plastic Free tells the inspiring story of how ordinary people have created change in their homes, communities, workplaces, schools, businesses, and beyond. Plastic Free offers hope for the future through the stories of those who have taken what looked like an insurmountable challenge and succeeded in innovative and practical ways, one step — and one piece of plastic — at a time.
Join us for this small, intimate event in person, or virtually via Zoom here.
Beaufort Street Books will be selling Plastic Free on the night.
