Join Spokane Zero Waste for a viewing of the documentary The Story of Plastic (2019) with an accompanying discussion.
The Story of Plastic is a searing expose, uncovering the ugly truth behind plastic pollution and the false solution of plastic recycling. Different from every other plastic documentary you’ve seen, it presents a cohesive timeline of how we got to our current global plastic pollution crisis and how the oil and gas industry has successfully manipulated the narrative around it. From the extraction of fossil fuels and plastic disposal to the global resistance fighting back, this life-changing film depicts one of the world’s most pressing environmental issues.
You can watch the documentary on Kanopy through your library account, or join us from 6:15-7:45pm to view the film. The discussion will take place at 7:45pm.
Learn more about how to reduce your waste and plastic usage via Spokane Zero Waste's website or Facebook Group.
