How did plastic become so pervasive in our lives?

How did plastic become so pervasive in our lives? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with Suzan Beraza, director of Bag It, a documentary that explores the world of plastics and their effects on our waterways, oceans, and even our bodies. Plastic bags have become a pervasive symbol of a throw-away society and a serious environmental problem. 60,000 plastic bags are used in the U.S. every 6 seconds. Join us live at 10 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What can we do to use less plastic? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Suzan Beraza, director of the documentary film, Bag It
