Circular Economy Event at Library, Jan. 19, 7pm


Here's a Sustainable Princeton event coming up tomorrow. One of the speakers is with TerraCycle. I'm going to take my burgeoning bag of mylar coffee bags to see if they will put them to reuse.

From Sustainable Princeton:
Join us tomorrow evening at 7:00 p.m. at the Princeton Public Library Community Room for our panel of local circular economy experts moderated by Dylan Siegler, Sustainability Coordinator at NRG Energy, Inc. Panelists Charlene Wall-Warren, Director Sustainability at BASF; Michael Waas, Global VP of Brand Partnerships at TerraCycle and Matt Wasserman, VP New Product Development & Sustainability, Sabert Corp. will discuss how companies are rethinking the linear "take, make, dispose" economy and moving towards a system that seeks to reduce pollution and the amount of waste we produce.

New Jersey Certified Recycling Professionals can earn 1.5 CRP classroom credit for attendance.

Light snacks and refreshments provided by Jammin' Crêpes. This zero-waste event is free and open to the public. Many thanks to our longtime event partner, The Princeton Public Library and our series sponsor, NRG Energy, Inc.
