A social gathering starts at 6:30 p.m., while the presentation begins at 7 p.m.
Guests and area newcomers are always welcome to join try.
The night’s speaker is Karen Taylor, who teaches at the Environmental Studies School in Groesbeck.
Taylor explains how plastics are affecting the Hill Country’s air and soil.
“They are an allencompassing part of our lives and environment,” she explained. “From the micro-plastics in sea water and the food we prepare to the containers we have sitting on the counter.”
Through “Going Green – Refusing Plastics,” she provides pertinent, practical and local resources to encourage people to “refuse” bringing plastics home in the first place.
She can be viewed live on Zoom or can be recorded for later viewing. The links will be posted both on chapter’s website, https://npsot.org/wp/fredericksburg, and its FaceBook group.
Chapter presentation videos are added each month. Interested persons will find links to past videos on topics supporting the vision of the group.
