DESCRIPTION:Plastics are like a hidden, daily oil spill - an unending stream of toxic 
 and non-biodegradable litter entering the world and our bodies. Can 
 recycling plastics solve the problem of plastic litter, and the poisoning 
 of the food web? Where are we going with ocean cleanup and product 
 stewardship? What are the plastics of greatest concern? \n\nJoin Sanjen 
 Miedzinski, Ph.D. and Beth Terry of Green Sangha to learn about the effects 
 of litter, how recycling falls short, and what businesses and governments 
 can do to stop the plague of plastic pollution. \n\nAbout the Presenters 
 Sanjen Miedzinski focuses on researching, writing and speaking on 
 environmental issues and in teaching the Diamond Approach, a spiritual 
 path. She is a former biochemist, psychologist and professor. She has found 
 a home in Green Sangha which integrates environmental work and spiritual 
 awareness. In 2007, Beth Terry, a Green Sangha member, started a blog 
 (www.myplasticfreelife.com) to document her personal journey toward a 
 plastic-free life. She is also the author of Plastic-Free: How I Kicked the 
 Plastic Habit and How You Can Too. Her outreach has extended from farmers' 
 markets to The Clorox Company. Her online campaign, "Take Back the Filter," 
 sparked a collaborative program for recycling Brita water filters. This 
 event is part of "Reuse, Redesign, Restore: a series about Zero 
 Waste."\n\nCost: Free\nInfo: 510-548-2220 x233,
