Our live webcasts will be streamed at www.eesi.org/livecast Reduce and Reuse: How to Cut Greenhouse Gas Emissions of Building Materials, Plastics, and Food Find out more about the briefings in this series below: Dec 08 Building Materials: From Production to Reuse Dec 09 The Climate Consequences of Plastics Dec 10 Reducing Emissions by Reducing Food Waste The Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) invites you to join us for a briefing series about the climate impacts of producing building materials, plastics, and food. Panelists will explain the upstream greenhouse gas emissions generated from the production of these materials and discuss solutions designed to reduce those emissions at scale. While composting is a solution for downstream food waste management, upstream reduction of food waste and food waste diversion can be the first steps to reduce emissions and resources unnecessarily used across the sector. Panelists will discuss some strategies available to policymakers that could bolster food waste reduction and diversion efforts.
