Plastic Straw Bans and other false solutions

from Earth Matters · host Presenter: Eiddwen Jeffery; Guest: Professor Simon Darcy

The sustainability movement likes to tout self-promoted actions of recycling and zero waste, but are these movements possible for everyone? This week we problematise the lack of inclusivity in the sustainability movement for those living with a disability.  Speaking with Professor of social inclusion Simon Darcy, Earth Matters looks critically at "Eco Ableism" and where the sustainability model needs to go, to be accessible to all. Professor Simon Darcy profile and publications. Poverty of Plastic Bans 2019 reserach paper Earth Matters #1385 was produced by Eiddwen Jeffery and guest producer Alex. Thumbnail image credit to Chemist4U
