Presentation by Cristin from WeFill

Let's deep dive into a discussion on plastic reduction and alternatives to single-use plastics with Crit Salaz, team captain of WeFill, your local solution to single-use pollution. "We don't need a handful of people doing zero-waste perfectly, we need billions doing it imperfectly." Every action you take makes a difference, so let's learn from each other!

Spanish language interpretation is available! Discussion led by Crit Salaz of WeFill.

Vamos a tener un debate profundo sobre la reducción de plásticos y las alternativas a los plásticos de un solo uso con Crit Salaz, capitán de equipo de WeFill, la solución local a la contaminación por plásticos. "No necesitamos que un par de personas realicen el residuo cero (zero waste) perfectamente, sino que miles de millones lo realicen imperfectamente." Cada acción hace una diferencia, así que ¡aprendamos juntos!

Interpretación al español proporcionada. Discusión dirigida por Crit Salaz de WeFill.
