Putting Plastic to Rest

Contributed By: Amy Feezor

Fact: Plastic is a material that simply never goes away. And while recycling is a stop-gap, it’s not a solution to the tons of plastic waste we generate. That’s precisely why Think Beyond Plastic is on the hunt for big thinkers, game-changers, and do-gooders who’ve figured out disruptive solutions to the global plastic pollution crisis. The innovation competition is giving its entrepreneur entrants a chance to win up to $50,000 to launch a company that measurably reduces plastic pollution — so the rewards are huge in every way (and for everyone). Take a look at the video below, and submit your ideas by March 18 at thinkbeyondplastic.com. Good luck!
