A Changing Planet Seminar

Description of Activity

A Changing Planet Seminar by Dr Cressida Bowyer, Senior Research Fellow at the University of Portsmouth

This event took place in person at South Kensington campus, with a livestream (online access via Zoom) for those attending at Silwood Park campus, as well as those attending online.

The global plastics crisis is symptomatic of unsustainable production and consumption patterns on a global scale. 175 nations have recently endorsed a resolution to end plastic pollution, which will address the full lifecycle of plastics and generate a systemic shift to a circular plastics economy. This presentation considers the links between plastics, climate and climate action. Cressida also presented on Revolution Plastics’ research in the global south, and how creative and grassroots approaches are being utilised to enable sustainable transitions to end plastic pollution.
