E01. Tainted Love: How our Plastics Heartache Began

  • Summary

  • Let’s start with the basics. How did our modern problems with plastics pollution get started?

    Susan Freinkel, a San Francisco based writer and the author of Plastic: A Toxic Love Story and American Chestnut: The Life, Death and rebirth of a Perfect Tree, shares her research into the history of our cultural love affair with plastics. 

    She's interviewed by Matthew Eaglehouse, a student at Cornell University in the Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management.
