From household hazardous waste (HHW) to battery fires and unregulated product disposal, our industry faces growing challenges that demand proactive solutions. This series will feature experts discussing successful EPR programs, recent and upcoming legislation, and strategies to reduce risks and costs associated with hazardous waste management. Whether you're a policymaker, waste industry professional, or sustainability advocate, these webinars will equip you with the knowledge and tools to drive meaningful change.
Join us to explore what’s working, what’s next, and how we can stop hazardous products from entering the market without an end-of-life plan.

| 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM (EDT) | How Do We Turn Off the Tap: Ending the Sale of Hazardous Products with No End-of-Life Plan In the US, products are brought to market without any consideration for how they must be handled at the end of its useful life. And now, an increasing proportion of products sold are considered hazardous, leading to costly end-of-life (EOL) management systems and increased exposure to workers from the dangers of improper disposal. We must change our hazardous product management system from one that is reactive to proactive and stem the tide of new products entering the marketplace without EOL plans.
