ANNANDALE-ON-HUDSON, N.Y., March 31, 2016  /3BL Media/ -  The Bard MBA in Sustainability  hosts a live dial-in podcast discussion with Michelle Wiseman, Public Sector Representative at Pratt Recycling. With a primary focus on recycling and sustainability, Pratt partners with municipalities, haulers and recyclers to respond to inquiries, service issues and events. Michelle is tasked with providing education regarding the reduction of waste and easing contamination. Pratt Recycling is one of the largest producers of 100% recycled cardboard in North America and operates one of the leading Material Recovery Facilities (MRF’s) in the Southeast. Listeners can dial in to the podcast at NOON EST on Friday, April 1st.

According to Bard MBA Director Eban Goodstein, "We can't begin to reimagine the cities of the future until we deal with the issue of waste management at scale in the near term. We can then focus on curbing human behavior by encouraging the basic principles of reduce, reuse, recycle over the long term, a major sustainability challenge for sure."
