Pollution Prevention Week is the third week of September each year. P2 Week 2025 is September 15-21 using the theme:

"40 Years of Pollution Prevention: Honoring the Past, Protecting the Future!"

This 2025 P2 Week picture was designed by Diana Henne, a recent graduate from Temple University. "As an educator, working to protect the future for the next generation is a cause dear to my heart; I chose to highlight this in the foreground of the poster with the passing from one hand to the next of the seedling to the blooming flower.

With honoring the past, I was inspired by my mother’s career in pollution prevention. Some ways I chose to incorporate examples of this work in the poster were the facility switching from fossil fuel to solar energy as well as proper maintenance and disposal of chemical waste in the background of the piece."

Save the Date:  This year's NPPR conference will be held virtually on Dec. 10, 11, 17, and 18 from noon-3pm ET (9am-noon PT).

If you'd like to be a speaker or know someone who would like to share their history of reducing or eliminating pollution at its source, register here. Deadline is Aug. 18.
