    GreenTeens Earth Day Special | Collaboration with Say No To Plastic Ware

    In this episode, we talk to a local organization called Say No To Plastic Ware, which works to reduce the distribution of plasticware by restaurants. Because the majority of plasticware isn't recycled, co-founder Aadit Bennur and his team aim to diminish the use of plasticware to avoid plastic waste build-up. Throughout this interview, Aadit discusses his organization's goals and how we can be more conscious about our plasticware use.  If you'd like to tune in to the other part of this collaboration, make sure to check out @saynotoplasticware on Instagram.
