Feldman Leonid Rabbi, Joining Science and Theology to End Plastic Pollution Conf. at Boston College

Plastics are manufactured chemical materials produced from fossil carbon-gas, oil, and coal. Plastics have supported extraordinary advances in virtually every area of human endeavor, and they have made our daily lives very convenient. However, is now clear that plastics are neither as safe nor as inexpensive as they seem. Plastics’ benefits come at great and increasingly visible costs to human health, the environment, and social justice.
