How Policies and New Business Models Can Reduce Single-Use Plastics

Karen Storry – Metro Vancouver Senior Engineer, Solid Waste Services

Karen is a Senior Engineer with Metro Vancouver Solid Waste Services. She has worked on various waste reduction and recycling projects over the past 10 plus years from feasibility studies on turning wood waste into particle board to implementing recycling programs in regional parks. Metro Vancouver estimates that 1.1 billion single-use items are disposed annually in the region. And, as the lead for the region's single-use item reduction work, it is Karen’s job to research how we can reduce plastic waste through circular economy programs, polices and business practices. She is excited to share that work with you through this exciting webinar series.
