Description

Is plastic itself the problem or how we are handling it? We answer that question and so many more with a good friend and plastic recycling expert: Dr. Kat Knauer! She has her PhD in polymer science and dedicated her career to research and implement the latest in plastic recycling technologies! We talk about the technologies which will change the future of plastic recycling, her volunteer efforts with Ocean Plastics Recovery and about her new book coming in 2022 about chemical recycling for plastics!! As a nerd, I am super excited for this book. Thanks for the amazing interview Kat! Hope you all enjoy!
