Free film focuses on reuse as strategy for reducing waste

The free documentary “REUSE! Because You Can’t Recycle the Planet,” will be shown this Saturday, Jan. 23, at 2 p.m. at Room 219 in the Antioch College Science building. The film is part of a series of events this month sponsored by Zero Waste Yellow Springs, in an effort to educate the community on how to reduce waste.

Following the film, Mary Ellen Etienne, CEO of the Reuse Institute of Dayton, will speak on reuse as a strategy for sustainable living, and several local artists who create art from used items will also speak. The local artists include Alice Young-Basora and her daughter, Carina, Anna Burke and Sondy Kai.
