SUMMARY:Webinar - Lithium-Ion Battery Fire Prevention: Inside the “Skip the Bin! Turn Your Batteries In!” Campaign
DESCRIPTION:Lithium-ion batteries are increasingly linked to fires across communities nationwide\, especially in the waste and recycling system. To address the risk of improperly discarded batteries\, the National Waste & Recycling Foundation (NWRF)\, in partnership with industry leaders and with the USDA Forest Service’s Woodsy Owl\, launched the “Skip the Bin! Turn Your Batteries In!” public service announcement (PSA) campaign. This webinar highlights early results from the campaign\, community engagement efforts\, and how education and prevention can help reduce battery-related fire risks nationwide. Learn how to leverage consistent messaging\, trusted messengers\, and local partnerships to help reduce battery-related fires before they start – and how the campaign is scaling nationally in 2026. \nPresenter: Genevieve O’Sullivan
