In this Best Of excerpt, Alex and Allison, co-chairs of IATSE Local 600's Sustainability Committee, break down how the camera department is tackling waste before it becomes waste — from a year-round e-waste drop-off in Chicago to a free camera-expendables exchange with EcoSet in Los Angeles. They also share the story behind One Tree Planted, the committee's tradition of planting a tree for every year of life of union members who've passed away — roughly 3,000 trees a year. This is an abridged excerpt of a previously released episode.
🌱 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:
— How a volunteer committee grew into a five-city national network
— Why the committee's focus shifted from recycling to reduction
— How EcoSet keeps camera expendables out of the landfill and gets them free to film students and indie filmmakers
— What it took to turn a union office into a year-round e-waste drop-off
— The story behind One Tree Planted and why the committee plants in honor of members who've passed
— How partnerships with Everyday Action LA and the Labor Network for Sustainability connect camera work to climate action
