We invite you to join us for another CPF meetup Sunday, November 10th 2-4pm at the Vashon Land Trust. There is a lot happening on the global, federal, state and local level which we’d would love to share with you and to get you involved:
Upcoming UN Plastic Treaty
The final round of negotiations for the UN Global Plastics Treaty will take place in South Korea November 25–December 1, 2024. In a recent shift, the US is supporting the global target to reduce plastic production. Let’s hope the new administration continues this policy.
Proposed Priorities for next US Administration
Beyond Plastics recommends that the next U.S. president reduce the production of plastics by 50% over the next 10 years through a series of 27 actions involving legislation and executive agencies.
State Level
Zero Waste WA’s Heather Trim joins us via Zoom to talk about plastic reduction for upcoming WA legislature & the CA Exxon lawsuit – could WA be next?
Vashon Island
The reusable cup program plus sharing ideas how to reduce plastic during the holidays
Light refreshments will be available. We are hoping to see you!
