Our Planet
Questioning plastics is easy. The answers are not that simple.
Indepak, in collaboration with Sinclair & Rush, Inc., introduces "The Planet", a series about all things plastic. We will attempt to provide an unbiased, scientifically based, and honest dialogue to help you make an educated decision about plastics and their alternatives. By exposing varying viewpoints about plastics, our hope is for all to find understanding that benefits Our Planet.
Although the "Our Planet" series is designed to be read in succession, we welcome you to select any subject of interest to you.
