How life in plastic can still be fantastic

A circular plastics system is helping people make low carbon choices on the daily, thanks to ‘the plastics man’ Peter Goult, a Programme Director at SYSTEMIQ. A story of climate innovation, pragmatism and optimism in action, this week’s freshly wrapped (biodegradable obvs) Climate Curious by TEDxLondon is a celebration of how life could be better in plastic, if we remake the system. Tune in with co-hosts Maryam Pasha and Ben Hurst live from New York Times’ Climate Forward event at The Conduit in London to learn about what plastic is made from, why we don’t recycle a whopping 91% of it, and how Peter hopes to create a net zero plastics system by eliminating unnecessary plastic, substituting, recycling, and investing in ground-breaking chemical recycling methods.
