Much of what we ask consumers to recycle is packaging, so PACKAGING 
DESIGN is critically important to the long-term success of recycling. 
Moderated by Scott Vitters, Director, Sustainable Packaging Platform 
from The Coca-Cola Company, this session will cover the State-of-the-Art 
in Sustainable Packaging Design. Speakers will include John Delfausse, 
Vice President, Estee Lauder Companies; Amy Zettlemoyer, Director of 
Packaging, Sam's Club; and Anne Johnson, Director, Sustainable Packaging 
Coalition.

After years of intense debate, the U.S. still lacks a comprehensive 
national system for ELECTRONICS RECYCLING. Product Stewardship Team 
Leader Garth Hickle from the Minnesota Office of Environmental 
Assistance will lead a lively and interactive discussion addressing this 
vexing topic. Panelists include Tod Arbogast, Sustainable Business 
Manager for Dell, Inc.; Rona Cohen, Senior Policy Analyst, The Council 
of State Governments; and Rick Goss, Director of Environmental Affairs, 
Electronic Industry Alliance.

CLIMATE CHANGE is the environmental issue of our time. In Climate 
Change: Can Recycling Turn Down the Heat?, David Refkin, Director of 
Sustainable Development for Time Inc. will moderate a panel featuring 
David Redfield, Vice President, Wal-Mart Stores; Jean Pierre Martel, 
Senior Vice President for Sustainability at the Forest Products 
Association of Canada; and Kevin Drew, Residential Recycling
