Science Session: Exploring the Impacts of Climate Change on the Solid Waste Industry

Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on the impact of climate change on the solid waste industry, where we unravel the mysteries, explore examples of climate-related risks, and dissect the reasons the solid waste industry should evaluate these risks. EREF’s Dr. Suzie Boxman, Director of Programs, will be joined by two key industry leaders, Kristian Macoskey, the ESG/Sustainability Lead at Civil & Environmental Consultants, Inc., who specializes in climate change risk assessment, and Annette Synowiec, the Director of Policy, Planning & Outreach in the Solid Waste Management Services Division of the City of Toronto, whose work revolves around developing a long-term waste management strategy focused on zero waste and a circular economy.
