The Association of Postconsumer Plastics Recyclers (APR) is sponsoring a webinar entitled "Recycling & the Economy" at 1:00 PM CST on February 4, 2010. This session will discuss the history of recycling in the US and how companies have grown to look to recycled feedstock as a source of good material. This session will include adoptable tips from two states that are using that information to help boost recycling through legislation and economic development and will wrap up with tools and resources to help you do the same. The speakers for this webinar include Jerry Powell (Resource Recycling), Wayne Gjerda (Minnessota Pollution Control), Scott Mouw (North Carolina Division of Pollution Control), Kent Foerster (Office of Resource Conservation and Recovery for the US EPA), Keefe Harrison (APR), and Steve Alexander (APR).
