Join host Zay Harding in The Visioneers as community nonprofit Plastic Beach tackles the gnarly challenge of soft plastics the wrappers, films, and bags that jam traditional recyclers—by collecting from local retailers, compressing hundreds of pounds into dense bales, and sending them to second lives in asphalt roads, pallets, and decking. It’s hands-on, hey-this-works circularity: weekly pickups prevent ocean-bound microplastics, balers turn fluff into shippable blocks, and waste becomes durable infrastructure instead of landfill fodder.
