Did
you
know...
...that
every
piece
of
plastic
ever
made
still
exists
today,
and
only
10%
of
what
we
throw
away
is
recycled
each
year?
That
means
the
other
90%
collects
on
land,
in
our
waterways,
in
our
bodies,
and
in
our
wildlife,
often
resulting
in
human
illness
and
wildlife
deaths.
However,
the
story
doesn't
have
to
end
this
way!
Let's
change
the
story!
Attend
our
open
house,
short
presentations
and
film
screening
on
Wednesday
July
25,
2018
to
learn
more
about
how
we
can
reduce
our
consumption
of
plastics
and
how
to
properly
dispose
of
them
in
the
Waterloo
Region.
Also,
learn
about
some
of
the
awesome
initiatives
happening
right
now
in
Waterloo
and
around
the
world
that
are
changing
the
story
every
day.
Get
involved!
