Rising Star Lisa Linke: How we can put an end to “Wishcycling”
Personally, I would love to require plastic manufacturers to find a way to recycle soft plastics/flexible packaging, like potato chip bags, ziptop packages and plastic baggies. Right now, there aren’t products or markets that find this useful, so even if you recycle it (“wishcycling”) it either contaminates the batch or ends up in the trash. Let’s make manufacturers more responsible for what they put out into the world, and consumers more responsible for what they throw away. And tie it together with legislation to help incentivize both ends!
For my series on strong female leaders, I had the pleasure of interviewing Lisa Linke.
Lisa Linke is an actress, writer, improviser and podcast host. She currently co-hosts Go Help Yourself, a comedy self-help podcast to make life suck less, available anywhere you listen to podcasts. While she reads a ton of self-help for her podcast, she absolutely despises it on principle.
