Stop Plastic Waste Event on June 4th

How do we achieve a drastic reduction of plastic waste? This question is central to the Stop Plastic Waste Event, which will be organized on June 4 during the Floriade Expo 2022 by Rotaryclubs and Innerwheel from the Central Netherlands district.

The event consists of dialogue sessions with experts in the field of Plastic Waste and with the guests. During the sessions, the topic is discussed by speakers active in the fields of ecology, behavioral and medical sciences, economics, business and technology. The impact of consumer plastics on the health and living environment of humans and animals is discussed in an accessible manner.

Afterwards there is an informal networking part. The event is a unique opportunity to exchange ideas with Rotary members from around the world on this topic and how we can come up with solutions. And of course it is a great opportunity to visit the Floriade.
