P+PB Confirms Dates For Annual ‘State Of The Campaign’ Webinars The Paper and Packaging Board (P+PB) has confirmed the dates for its annual “State of the Campaign” webinars on Tuesday, July 13th; Thursday, July 15th; and Tuesday, July 20th for member companies, media and partners. This year, Mary Anne Hansan, President, P+PB, will dis- cuss the campaign’s initial approach to communicating sustainability and the look and feel of the new creative de- signed to appeal to the younger end of the demographic, consumers between the ages of 18-34 who are concerned about the environment and want to do their part. “According to research from the Carton Council, con- sumers overwhelmingly agree that knowing what prod- ucts are created from the materials they recycle inspires them to recycle more,” said Hansan. “This first wave of new work brings paper recycling to life showing consum- ers the kinds of products their paper and packaging recy- cling can be turned into.” P+PB’s annual State of the Campaign webinars are open to anyone interested in learning about the Paper and Packaging Board’s consumer campaign. Register to attend one of four 45-minute State of the Campaign we- binars: July 13 @ 11-11:45am EST; July 15 @ 11-11:45am EST; July 15 @ 3-3:45pm EST; or July 20 @ 11-11:45am EST by visiting paperandpackaging.org .
