Adam Minter, author of Junkyard Planet will be the Keynote Speaker for MORA's 25th Annual Conference.

Adam Minter is an American writer who serves as an Asia-based columnist at Bloomberg View. His first book, Junkyard Planet: Travels in the Billion-Dollar Trash Trade (Bloomsbury 2013) is a critically acclaimed and best selling insider’s account of the hidden world of globalized recycling, from the US to China and points in between. Adam has covered the global recycling industry for more than a decade. In 2002, he began a series of groundbreaking investigative pieces on China’s emerging recycling industries for Scrap and, later, Recycling International that were recognized, in 2004, with the first Stephen Barr Award for individual excellence in business feature writing, awarded by the American Society of Business Publication Editors.
