Yesterday in Los Altos was night 1 of our 3-part series of The Plastic Inside of Us: See the Scary Truth. Stay for the Solutions. Before the movie began, the space was buzzing with local advocates sharing real actions the community can take to strengthen a more healthy and sustainable local economy. The Los Altos Community Center was a beautiful space to screen the film, and while it was an intense watch on the dangers microplastics pose to human health, it powerfully set the stage for our panelists: local changemakers working to safeguard human health by re-normalizing sustainable, reusable options over single-use plastic. Many attendees also took immediate action, signing postcards provided by The Story of Stuff Project that call on our legislators to enact and better enforce reuse policies. If you missed this first event, we’d love for you to join us next week for one of the next two: 📍 San Francisco — Monday, Oct 27 (https://lnkd.in/g2bvtTiJ) 📍 Oakland — Wednesday, Oct 29 (https://lnkd.in/gcm6zCuc) Each evening offers the same powerful mix of film, conversation, and community action —all centered on how reuse can protect our health, our planet, and our future. #ReuseWins Panelists: Rashmi Joglekar Krystal Mae Raynes Benjamin Schleifer Derek Mak Moderated by Bailey Hall Tabling Organizations: Right On!

2dThis was a fantastic event. Kudos to everyone who organized and participated. It was great to see how engaged the audience was - during the screening, panel, and at the postcarding table.
