Consumer sentiment had shifted away from disposable packaging, especially single-use plastics, until COVID-19 prompted a resurgence. Many assume single-use items are safer due to virus survival on surfaces, but this isn't necessarily true.

For Plastic-Free July, we'll examine a circular model offering a hygienic alternative to single-use. Join 3BL Media, Loop's Anthony Rossi, and UPS's Patrick Browne on July 22 at 2 p.m. ET. We'll discuss Loop's "21st-century milkman" approach during COVID-19 and how circular systems can prevent a backslide on plastic waste.

Recent technological advances, notably Project CETI, are enabling us to begin understanding animal communication, starting with sperm whales. This interdisciplinary initiative employs machine learning, robotics, and natural language processing to decipher nonhuman animal communication.

While these technologies offer significant promise for enhancing animal well-being and rights, they also present serious risks of manipulation and exploitation.

To address this, the NYU More-Than-Human Life (MOTH) Program and Project CETI are collaborating to establish ethical and legal guardrails. This conversation features David Gruber and César Rodríguez-Garavito, moderated by Teo Grossman of Bioneers.
