Judith Enck is the author of The Problem with Plastic: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It’s Too Late (2025), a powerful investigation into plastic’s impact on human health and the environment, and how concerned citizens can fight back.
New York Times columnist David Wallace Wells called it, “A vivid, enraging cri de coeur against contamination and the forces that have done the most prolific polluting.”
Enck is the founder and president of Beyond Plastics, whose goal is eliminating plastic pollution everywhere. In 2009 she was appointed by President Barack Obama to serve as regional administrator at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. She also served as Deputy Secretary for the Environment in the New York Governor’s Office.
