“Pandemic panic” is causing nearly 70 percent of people to turn to single-use plastic more, according to 2021 research from South West News Service.  

Today, as we look ahead to a post-pandemic future, the need for sustainable solutions to traditional single-use plastics has never been greater. The silver lining? From startups to multinational corporations, business has the expertise and influence to solve the plastic waste problem once and for all.

Join us on June 2 at 1 p.m. ET for “Pushing Past Plastic: How Brands Can Be Part of the Solution,” the second edition of 3BL Forum: Brands Taking Stands - LIVE, as we explore how and why business is taking bold action to combat our plastic problem.

THE NEW YORK STAGE IS SET.

3BL Forum will continue its newly established tradition of bringing corporate leaders together on a fast-paced main stage, keenly focused on the ‘why’ and ‘how’ as business amplifies its leadership and elects to lead on environmental, social and governance issues.

Our main stage will feature legacy companies, sustainable businesses, NGOs and leading agencies. This 2-day conversation will be curated to bring forth new perspectives, nuances in thinking, candid insights, and revelations above and beyond the ordinary.
