Next to the documentary there will be a panel discussion with several guest speakers.<\/p>\n<p>THE RECYCLING MYTH<br \/>\nWhat really happens to our plastic waste once we put it in the recycling bin?<\/p>\n<p>As the plastic pollution crisis has become an international scandal, the biggest consumer goods brands on earth have declared they have a solution: recycling. But our plastic packaging is still more likely to end up being burned or dumped than recycled. We show how the oil, packaging and consumer goods industries spin the recycling fairytale to allow them to continue polluting without consequence. As we all pick up the bill for a world drowning in plastic, the film asks: who is getting rich?<\/p>\n<p>There is no entry fee, however the seats will be given by the concept of first come, first served.<\/p>\n<p>Further information<br \/>\n\u2794 The event will be in English<br \/>\n\u2794 There will be fingerfood and beverages starting from 6pm<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Find the event on Facebook <a href=\"https:\/\/fb.me\/e\/1cMVERLrP\">here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plastic is a revolutionary material.
