The Plastic Problem with reading by author Rachel Salt and research adventures from PhD student Bonnie Hamilton

Plastic, it’s used to make everything from drink bottles and bags to toys and toothbrushes. But what happens when it ends up where it doesn’t belong? 

Join us over 5-weeks as the U of T Trash Team and Ocean Conservancy present live readings of children's books on the topic of plastic pollution, with very special guests - the authors themselves! 

• We'll also be joined by scientists from the U of T Trash Team to talk about their adventures in research and you'll get the chance to interact and ask your own questions about plastic pollution. 

• Our team will then challenge you to take part in a 4 week challenge with activities focused on reducing and reusing waste in your home.
