  • Durability: Can Extended Producer Responsibility Withstand Legal, Political, And Market Pressure?
    2026/02/24

    In this episode of Change Cycle, Christine Yeager puts extended producer responsibility (EPR) systems through a stress test—examining how they hold up under lawsuits, market volatility, political shifts, and public scrutiny. From California’s refined packaging regulations to Oregon’s ongoing legal challenge, and new EPR bills emerging in Illinois, New York, New Hampshire, and Wisconsin, she unpacks the fast-moving U.S. policy landscape.


    But durability isn’t just about surviving headlines. Drawing lessons from Germany, France, Belgium, and British Columbia, Christine explores what makes EPR systems financially stable, legally defensible, operationally sound, and adaptable over time. She argues that lasting circular economy progress depends not only on strong funding mechanisms and governance—but on leaders who can navigate controversy and stay committed when the pressure rises.


    As U.S. EPR policy matures, the real question isn’t whether it will face resistance. It’s whether it’s built to endure it.

  • Why Education Alone Can’t Fix US Recycling: The Systemic Barriers You Need To Know
    2026/02/10

    Why is recycling still broken in the U.S.—even when consumers are trying to do the right thing? The problem isn’t a lack of education or effort. It’s a fragmented system built on inconsistent state laws, conflicting definitions of “recyclable,” and outdated standards that confuse consumers and brands alike.


    In this deep dive, Christine Yeager explains why blaming consumers misses the mark, how Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws in states like California, Oregon, and Colorado are reshaping recycling rules, and why education can only work when the system itself is aligned. From the FTC Green Guides and APR testing standards to the reality of plastics, textiles, and flexible packaging, this conversation reveals what’s really standing in the way of higher recycling rates—and what needs to change to rebuild trust in the system.


    If you’ve ever wondered why recycling feels so confusing, this episode breaks down the structural issues behind the headlines—and why fixing the system matters more than lecturing consumers.
