Plastic Globes ask: Was there a lighter side in 2020? Rich Williams Oh, 2020. What will you think of next? A pandemic, murder hornets, Supreme Court battles, civil unrest and a disputed election. It was a year where everyone learned to use Zoom, Skype, Teams or Slack. Or maybe all of the above. Heaven help the non-tech-savvy among us. This is our 33rd edition of the Plastic Globe awards, our annual irreverent tribute to the plastics industry's newsmakers. Usually my rule is that Plastic Globes have to be funny. This year we'll sprinkle in a few others, for variety. I hope a little humor will help our readers prepare for a great 2021.
