G&R Episode 27: The End of the Age of Plastic w/ Stiv Wilson

In our latest episode, we talk with activist and filmmaker Stiv Wilson (@AgentStiv) from the Peak Plastic Foundation (@peakplastic) about the new film "The Story of Plastic." We discuss the staggering problem of plastic pollution in our oceans and our communities. We also discuss how "the end of this story is just the beginning" as people around the world are now acting to break free from plastic.  Stiv Wilson is the co-director of the Peak Plastic Foundation. He's also the producer/executive producer of "The Story of Plastic."  He’s created and led several campaigns to victory: from plastic bags bans, to plastic microbeads, to plastic water bottles at the state, national and international level. He has sailed over 35,000 nautical miles to four of the five oceanic ‘garbage patches,’ documenting and communicating maritime plastic pollution firsthand through publications, multi-media, and film.  Read more: Peak Plastic Foundation: https://www.peakplasticfoundation.org/  Story of Plastic: https://www.storyofplastic.org/ EcoWatch: The Story of Plastic: New Film Exposes the Source of Our Plastic Crisis (https://bit.ly/31dhRL4) Salon: Humanity can’t recycle its way out of consumption problems (https://bit.ly/37U6E3v)  As always, you can follow us at: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GreenRedPodcast      Twitter: https://twitter.com/PodcastGreenRed     Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greenredpodcast/   Also, please keep Green and Red independent at Patron: https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast Green and Red's website: https://greenandredpodcast.org/donate-to-green-and-red/  This is a Green and Red Podcast production.
