Episode 168: EPR & Textile Stewardship with Joanne of CPSC

<p>This week, Amanda is joined by Joanne Brasch, PhD, the Special Projects Manager for the<a href="https://www.calpsc.org/"> California Product Stewardship Council (CPSC)</a>. She is going to help us understand how EPR works and how it will impact business, planet, communities, and us as consumers. She also will tell us about all of the projects and stakeholders involved in CPSC’s projects and legislation goals.  And she will tell us how we can practice our own “textile stewardship.”  This episode also includes a message from Erin.  <em>Disclaimer from Amanda: I thought I did a good job of responding to Erin's message while I was writing and recording my response, but when I uploaded the transcript of her message, I realized that I did not address her questions about advertising, which I'll talk about more in the next episode!<br></em><br><a href="https://www.calpsc.org/textilestewardship">CPSC Textile Stewardship</a><br><a href="https://www.calpsc.org/legislation">California Legislation</a><br><a href="https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/supportSB707">Sign on to support SB 707 (Newman) to create a textile EPR program in CA</a></p><p>Thanks to this episode's sponsor, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lucky.sweater/">Lucky Sweater. </a>Use invite code <strong>"clotheshorse"</strong> to join today!</p><p><strong>Find this episode's transcript </strong>(and so much more) at <a href="https://www.clotheshorsepodcast.com/episodes/the-rental-sode">clotheshorsepodcast.com</a></p><p>Want to support Amanda's work on Clotheshorse?
