Earth Sunday: Planet vs Plastic, Lunch and Learn Event

April 21 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Earth Sunday Planet vs Plastics Lunch and Learn Event: Westworth United Church, 1750 Grosvenor Avenue, invites all who care about the ongoing chemical and plastic pollution of Lake Winnipeg to join us on Earth Sunday, April 21. Bring your bag lunch to eat with others at 12:00 noon. The presentation begins at 12:30 pm with Sarah Warrack, a researcher who works at the International Institute of Sustainable Development (IISD)- Experimental Lakes Area. Sarah has investigated microplastic pollution in Lake Winnipeg and surrounding waterways. She has found that it is infiltrating the lake’s ecosystem. This is a relatively recent development that has serious implications for ecosystems in Canada.

We look forward to seeing you.
