Despite the national election being less than 100 days away, the political landscape is continuing to evolve dramatically. From the attempted assassination of former President Trump to President Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race, and Vice President Harris emerging as the Democratic frontrunner, it is anyone’s guess as to what November 5 will hold.

To prepare the recycled materials industry for the wide array of scenarios, ReMA is hosting a series of webinars exploring how the outcome of the elections may impact environmental, business, and international policy decisions. The schedule, while subject to change based on availability of presenters, is as follows:

“We’re designing these sessions to provide our members with information they need to help them make informed business decisions, regardless of the political outcome,” said Cheryl Coleman, ReMA’s vice president of sustainability.

ReMA invites members stakeholders, industry professionals, and interested parties to participate in these sessions. By engaging with experts across party lines, attendees will gain strategic knowledge to navigate potential challenges and opportunities for the recycled materials industry.
