Reinventing Recycling Trailer
With the US recycling system teetering on the point of collapse, and a global plastic pollution crisis on the horizon, a group of determined scientists and engineers engage in a race to rescue recycling.
Reinventing Recycling is a feature documentary that peels back the layers of the waste problem and shares the stories of those innovating to solve it.
From breakthroughs in recycling technologies to public policy – these are the people working to transition the linear economy of today to the circular economy of tomorrow.
