Presented by Ari Storch

IAPD's recent e-training webinar, Introduction to Performance Plastics, setup the foundation for the basic understanding and distinction between IAPD's plastics (performance plastics) and disposable plastics, such as bags and bottles.

A follow-up webinar, It's Not Easy Choosing Green, then dove deeper into the environmental impact and benefits of performance plastics versus other traditional materials such as wood, glass, rubber and metals.

IAPD's third presentation in the performance plastics webinar training series takes a closer look at the plastics industry on Capitol Hill and IAPD's increasing efforts to promote and protect performance plastics and its members' businesses through government relations.

Plastics, Politicians and Protecting the Industry specifically details the following:

• The difference between the performance plastics industry and the consumer (single use) plastics industry on Capitol Hill
• The need to educate lawmakers about the benefits and advantages of performance plastics
• IAPD GR priorities including an update about the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) as well as other GR issues IAPD is focused on
• Capitol Hill priorities including information about the Plastics Industry Fly-In June 21-22
• Coalitions in Washington IAPD is focused on (PAL)
• The upcoming elections
