Moving Beyond Plastics: Restaurant Solutions

From Seven Generations Ahead:

Dining during the COVID-19 pandemic has brought an uptick in our use of plastic to-go food packaging as we rely more on delivery and carryout. But many see opportunities to move the restaurant industry beyond plastics by enacting better practices and policies. Join us to hear voices from around the country that help us envision a plastic-free future for restaurants in the Chicago area.

Moderated by Jaclyn Wegner, Director of Conservation Action at Shedd Aquarium
